New Year…New Challenge!
Posted: January 2, 2012 in My Life as an Artist, Ninety-One Days (2), UncategorizedThis time it’s budget oriented! But that will affect many other areas of my life as well. (Pretty guaranteed prediction) Like many people, I woke this morning, the first day of the new year with a sense of reflection. While I will not dwell on any negative from the last, I can find plenty of [...]

Our wheels keep on rolling…
Posted: July 29, 2011 in 2011 - July 1 thru Sept 30, My Life as an Artist, Mystery BuildSo, if we just said we are two collaborative artists, well into our adult life and acting like giddy little school children, it would be a severe understatement!

Posted: April 18, 2011 in 2011 - April 1 thru June 30, My Life as an Artist, UncategorizedI’d venture to say there is a true meaning of life although most of us spend our lives trying to figure out what it is.

This just might explain why you haven’t heard from me in a while, which, is simply no excuse! I missed waking up to blog and have [...]
