Blog Break

Life is a journey, not a destination. 

Time to regroup, take a vacation, and explore new paths.
I hope to return to blogging in August with more artistic adventures!

"There is a vitality, a life-force, an energy, a quickening which is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. 
And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it." --Martha Graham
