Winter Solstice


the sun passed through the sky
low
to the mountains

tis the shortest day of the year

being filled with more night than day light 
she 
sat
with stars in her heart
at peace with the passing of the sun
~

I think this photo shows the gold leaf better:

last night's crescent moon was incredibly beautiful

I saw the sun's light on it more than looking at it as a 
sliver of moon 

somehow
noticing it that way felt like a solstice gift

sunlight at night

~
Lovely Solstice to you

Living Meditation


she sat
until
she was part of the seasons
breathing with the rhythm of the earth 
and
 heart beating with the sun and moon

Scrbble Picnic: Finland



Reading about the forests of Finland
I felt like they were similar to my home in Montana

edible berries and mushrooms
which inspired this piece:

lingonberries
and
king bolete

Sarvangasana


shoulder stands feel so good

~

PS I am told that getting upside down is good
for our immune systems. 
One could even lay on the floor (bottom close to a wall)
and legs go up the wall. 
So relaxing too.

Little Friend


Usually I look at my art, during the sketch 
or when it is complete
and 
something comes to me,

something about what it is about.

You know, the little things I write under my paintings. 
A small blip of prose, 
just enough to ignite your imagination 
so that you can make it your own. 

 This time, all I have is:

little friend

Do you have something more?

I always enjoy when I see things in pairs in nature
