Ache
My body is the Leaning Town of Pisa, The sinking city of Venice, The remains of Notre Dame after the fire. It aches, creaks and is off balance. My body no longer feels like home base but a turbulent flight I must endure. Eyes closed I breathe deep, seeing where the jolt of unease and…

Hazy
July 16. Physical: numb head, spinning eyes, tingling feet, arms, legs. Moving slow. The day begins… hot humid, will there be a through line. What does it mean to “waist a day”? Creating a maze of routine events and thoughts that blunder you through the day. A blur of a day. Your vision impaired and…

Tipping
Playing with fire. Daring to be invincible and spewing the firehose of Pandora’s box. Being actor and audience. How can you not be singed – destroyed by the house you set on fire. The media will grab onto the events of yesterday and we step closer to uncertainty – or the realization of it. Fear…

Enact
The way my body and mind are tracking these days, I’m bound to make mistakes, rush, through clouds of fog – do my best at the moment. But what if now – just for now – I complete a task and wait. Wait. Review. Then send. What if instead of thinking FOR someone, you brake…

Whose Story?
I woke to find a world where individuals are letting the loudest voice tell their story, and fulfill their own needs through “drones”. Repeating a thread, a hound dog intent on the single sent, masses are making judgements for their lives based on 1 aspect of the story. Who in their right mind bases any…

Nesting
Without thinking – I painted the new shutters for the second floor cream. And in distrust I looked at the two coats and thought – I’m uncomfortable. Too much too bright, too cute. I had created the idea for A’s restaurant in tones of grey and she had painted them bright cream. After taking the…

lightness
I see lightness in your being in the near future. The full moon says so…the emotional heaviness no longer serves you or the world. That beautiful you becomes the brighter flame. Last night was a full moon burn. Parts of your paintings old mallas, notes and the “Mary” pillow. Light blue linen 9 inch square…
