b) a place of risk where you are not quite sure what will happen

what is our interior landscape?
stillness

Stillness and groundedness
the keys to art and calm.
It is always good to see where we came from
i like this very much judy.
I love seeing these pictures of your family and the golden glow of sunlight on the new piece. Thank you...
Deeply personal, but not specifically so. Your story translates to our story, and for that I thank you. Love seeing little you :)
Your story, your words are a strong, purposeful picture of being with our creative self in the making of art. Thank you for the beauty of your story shared.

These are lovely and touching pictures of your family. I’m very drawn to the isolation of the background landscape. I think I see that and the vulnerability it suggests often portrayed in your art.
I loved seeing these old photos too. The isolation of the place I grew up in was brought back to me. The elegance of my mother. The creativity of my father. The solidness of our family unit. The long winters. I thought sharing them might help me. Thank you to all who have commented and visited - love xo
