 MY CREATIVE PLACE Unable to brush paint onto a blank canvas, I sit captivated by the view on the other side of my desk. From my vantage point, I look out over the city and the Inlet and the Alaska Mountain Range. The sky is a soft blue this morning, though, recently it has been tempestuous as evidenced by snow laden trees. Before I return to my composition, I'm sharing what captures my attention; inspiration given directly from the Master Creator.  Panoramic view of my front yard. Mesmerizing sunset Nov 13, 2021

I confess, it requires acts of discipline on my part in order to live creatively. The decisions I've made over the last several years, both professionally and personally, work to free up more time for my writing, drawing, painting and other artistic ventures. And the sacrifices I've made for this quieter, creative life are well worth the effort as I grow to enjoy a solace that produces outcomes from long-held creative dreams. Archives
