keeping up with the down
Picture
You were followed,
for a long time.
Too long.
Disenchanted migraines
& the sounds of screeching strings
echoed in tired ears.
Keeping up with the down.

Picture
You are hallowed
for the song line.
Too pretty, too ugly.

Fractured mind games
& the rule of Kings
Repetition of mired self hating tears.
Losing ground with the Glower.
Picture
You were hallowed out
for the wrong time,
Oracle of things.
Knew better than even the
repetition in a mired tear.
Losing ground with the frown.
Picture
Unplowed but sown,
Never so fine.
Not deep.
Punctured names
running of rings
& cauterized seer
Forecaster with the self appointed crown.
Keeping up with the Down.

Listen to the birds...they talk endlessly...
You may have accidentally
conditioned yourself to tune them out.

Listen to the birds...the have the greatest view,
and more than enough to say, to you.
Listen to the birds...

They have all the answers.

Axed

Axed 16"x20" acrylic on canvas
My husband brought an axe home just for me.  It's a perfectly me-sized mini-axe that I can carry around with me while I walk the dog in case a sick coyote challenges us, or I can use it to cut down the small trees that try to take over my garden ...and I can slice the vines of poison ivy that snake into my space every spring...but...in my mind, i want to chop down everything....EVERYTHING.
Yes, this is a political post.

    NOTES & SKETCHBOOK


    Excerpts from:
    Ask Me About My Art  / 2020

    ​

    Where does your inspiration come from? 

          "Everywhere! That's a bit of a tough question because inspiration is fluid and constantly evolving and it changes minute to minute, hour by hour.  I could be passionate about circles one day and trip over a rock and obsess about the color of that particular rock for a decade.  It's a constant surprise for me, that's what makes life, and art... interesting and beautiful."

    What is your creative process?
           "Well, that might be an entire separate book! I guess the simple answer is that I dump the things that clutter my brain into art so I can make room to upload all the new things." 

    What medium do you primarily work in?
          "Depends on the subject, the colors I am drawn to that day, the subject I'm looking at and whatever it is that is inspiring me at that moment...I use whatever tool necessary to best convey the story, image, or message.  I do seem to have a comfort level with acrylic on canvas, written word or digital photography, I frequently lean on and return to those tools after trying a few other things."
