spirits of earth and air
let us dance
with gloreous flare
ethereal we share as kin
breathe dance laugh
and spin

recently I was thrilled to win a copy of Seth Apter's recent book:
Secrets and Passions of 100 Artists Revealed
this book overflows with questions to the artists
about how they feel about their art:
where do you find you inspiration
what emotions show up in your art work
what expresses the inner most you
and so on the questions continue
also
the book overflows with wonderful art!
I love learning about artists
Thank you Seth for the gift of your book!
