August 6, 2014 This is me taking a second look at one of my paintings … & myself. Creator, creation, all caught in the act of creating … again. ❤ /// {{Wondering what’s going on here?? Almost a year ago, I found myself on bad terms with the person in the mirror. So I made […]

Same Body, Second Glance: Day Thirty-Six
August 5, 2014 If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the past thirty-odd days, it’s that I can’t get enough of playing in the light: It transforms everything it touches — erases, reveals, alters all the lines… When I’m standing in it, I see the world differently. I see *myself* differently. I’m fluid, capable of […]

August 4, 2014 /// {{Wondering what’s going on here?? Almost a year ago, I found myself on bad terms with the person in the mirror. So I made a commitment: every day for forty days, I’d take *one* photograph of my body that I could honestly see as beautiful. Want to follow my journey? Start here.}}

Same Body, Second Glance: Day Thirty-Two
August 1, 2014 Every day, we stand in a threshold and choose. To stay or to go. To hide or reveal. It is a tremendous risk, taking your real self out into a world that doesn’t always want to see it. But I have spent too many years hiding. And the hiding place feels too […]

Same Body, Second Glance: Day Twenty-Nine
July 29, 2014 This evening I sit on the back steps, listen to the hum of the locusts, watch the sun fading to pink behind the blue hills. I push two fingers into my throat and feel the steady throb of my pulse in the jugular … rhythm old as time. My choices have […]
