Time well spent

I didn’t get much time to walk around on my own with my camera over the holidays. I did double duty between my camera and iPhone.

South for the Holidays

I’ve spent many of the past 13 years of the winter holidays in Southern California, where my husband’s family lives. It’s always sunny, sometimes freezing, sometimes sweaty.

My first Arts & Crafts event

I’ll be one of several artists selling at Seven Star Women’s Kung Fu Holiday Martial Arts & Crafts Bazaar. Below is a selection of the work I’ll be selling. If you’re in the Seattle Area, come support local artists and our school!

Bend Fold

Tuning into the High Vibes

To Be Outside

The windows above it look out onto the ocean, an endless expanse of beautiful uncertainty. The intent of this […]
