Be Yourself

 

"Be yourself.

There is something 

that you can do

better than any other.

Listen to the inward voice

and bravely obey that."  

May you Sense

"May you sense around you the

secret Elsewhere where the 

presences that have left you dwell." - John O'Donohue 

Art Does This

 

"Art washes away 

from the soul

the dust of 

everyday life."  Picasso  

You Have The Answer

 

"at the center

 of your being you

have the answer;

you know who you are and you know

what you want." -Lao Tzu 

A Carver Carnival Painting

 I've been going through some old photos and found this one. Long ago when the girls were in elementary school at Carver the school hosted a yearly carnival. Someone knew I could paint and they asked me to do several large painted figures with cut out faces so kids could pose at a booth. I don't know where the other photos are but here is one funny figure I painted. I think the others were a pirate and a mermaid.
