Greetings, friends, and welcome to my studio. I could call this my happy place, and many days it is, but it is also the place where,every time I enter,I face myself and my fears, . Will I make something true and beautiful or will it be ugly, worthy only of the garbage can? One thing I know for sure, and this is a lot of what I will blog about; it keeps my spirit young, flexible, curious and forgiving. I am a 76 year old artist and writer, and these crafts hold me up as I age. I hope you’ll join me in this adventure of aging creatively. You don’t have to be an artist. You can be a gardener, a baker, rearranger and designer of almost anything. Just get up from your chair, come along with me and have some fun
