Simple


The sectioning of a ruby red grapefruit as a small child was a nurturing ritual with a plastic picnic knife my mother let me use. I abandoned the simple process for a few decades for I had more important interests: discovering who I thought I should be, earning an education, frivolous shopping, inconsequential attention from boys, a madcap venturesome exertion to climb the corporate ladder, dedicating my efforts to reaching material and superficial goals based on my interpretation of the media and the society of which I lived, co creating a family, then finally embarking on the discovery of simplifying my previous quests and establishments. I have reconnected with the patience and appreciation of the time and process it takes to portion each segment with my very own grown up utensil.

Initial posting

I am on my journey into the uncertain, mysterious, stimulating universe of art. Leaving a Coffee House business that I created five years ago, I find myself propelled by forces unknown, yet familiar, to create art with the intention of comforting the environment of our daily lives. This process has proven to be both soulfully enriching as well as painfully crippling. I am curious to discover this blog as another creative outlet to keep the chi flowing. Enjoy!
