How to choose a meaningful gift
This time of year seems to be filled with special occasions like graduations, weddings, anniversaries and in my family, we've got plenty of summer birthdays, too. There's nothing quite as wonderful as giving a gift that holds special meaning and one way for a gift to have meaning is for that gift to symbolize something.
Why I Make Art at Church
If you've been following me for a bit, you have probably seen that I occasionally create art live on stage at my church. We have four services over the weekend and I will be creating artwork for the full length of each ninety minute service, which are all the same. That's not a thing that happens at many churches and whether or not you are familiar with church world, you may have wondered why I do that. There's actually several reasons.
Did you ever have a butterfly net?
I did! I'm pretty sure that I had an unofficial catch and release protocol because I don't really remember what happened after I caught a butterfly, or if I really ever caught any. (Maybe my mom will remember and tell me, lol.) But I remember being enchanted by butterflies and I am pretty much still under their spell.
"Her Inner Light"
Her Inner Light is a captivating group exhibit showcasing the dynamic expressions of women artists, curated by Catherine Harris. In a world where every woman carries an indomitable spark within her, "Her Inner Light" pays tribute to the resilience, creativity, and vitality that define the female experience.
Finding a new path
There's nothing like the thrill of adventure in your own backyard. I take regular easy hikes along the trails that run along Dry Creek near my house. And recently I discovered a new single track trail that someone forged and then carefully marked out with bits of yellow caution tape.
