Do You Believe in Magic

Magical realism, like the uncanny, projects an uncertainty suggesting that ordinary life may also be the scene of the extraordinary.  There is magic all around us - but we must choose to see it.  When our eyes are open to magic, even the smallest things become miraculous.....

Making order out of Chaos.....

This photo of my desk (shot today) is a glimpse of what my workspace is like.  Yes, I'm messy, but that is the way my mind works:  via the chaos, order Will come.  Often, I'm too caught up in mental machinations to even consider taking the time to tidy up my desk.  Eventually, the desk will become so crowded with "stuff" that it bothers even me - and I will put it all in order.  But one thing is certain - it won't remain that way for long.......

Moonshine

Yes, I'm back!  I took some time off from blogging (guess I burnt out a bit), but I'm hopping back in to share some of what I've been up to for the past year.

Here is a small celebration of all things clandestine! There is much to be said for all the good things that can be accomplished by the light of the moon.....

Silent Scream

Keeping too much inside oneself has consequences. Usually it's not possible for others to see the inner turmoil - but sometimes it is written all over her face.....

All The King's Horses

I'm feeling a bit like this today (fell off my bicycle this morning) - so I decided to post this long gone piece to commemorate the event!

Some things are so broken that they cannot be fixed. So, the question is: What do we do with all the pieces?.....

The size of this small ceramic face is 2 5/8" high by 1 3/4" wide.

The Carrot or the Stick

And so, you may ask (as I do): why must we choose? And is the stick always the poorer choice?....
