It has long been my personal belief that art changes people – it heals them and those around them.
Never have I been so moved by an organization. These artists and their videos should be playing in every home, office, hospital and school. We can all make a difference. Visit the Playing for Change site and [...]
Okay. It’s my middle one’s birthday. Chris – totally talented and amazingly interesting. I am so glad he showed up in ours lives and continues to be a source of love, light and peace. (You didn’t know that about him, did you?)
Happy birthday, darling boy – you totally dazzle me. You [...]
As an artist, I am more of a short term project person than someone who can (and will) invest a long time developing and then producing their creative expression.

Okay. I am experimenting here to see if a new post will shove all that other stuff over to the right. Oh, you don’t know what I am talking about. It’s okay. I just lost all of my posts et al.
Does it get any better than this? A clean slate.
I totally lost all my posts. Again.
