Springtime flowers and joy

In a couple of days I'll be on my way to Mid-Missouri to see my family and to engage in a couple of art projects, one a writing project, the other drawing wildflowers. I did something similar last May and enjoyed myself and the work immensely. 

The family things also involve creativity. I'll attend the graduation of a grandson who has been studying welding and metalwork at Missouri State Technical School in Lynn MO. I'll also attend a baby shower looking forward to the birth of a second great grandchild! Both celebrations will mark celebrations of new beginnings.

While there I plan to finish two chapters in the manuscript I've been working on for a year. I plan also to draw, draw, draw in Jefferson City Parks, the Runge Center, Missouri Wildflowers Nursery, and my son's farm. Of course there will be wonderful conversations, meals, card games, and laughter. I plan to post something from there to keep you abreast. Hopefully I'll also experience success.

An Artist's Prayer



Open me to the world:

      That which I see so I can see it
      creatively and fully;

      That which I feel so I can interpret it
      in word and shape and color;

      That which I imagine so I can grow
      into a larger human being and
      more into your own creative image.
