The Way You See It

“No one else has access to the world you carry around within yourself;
you are its custodian and entrance. No one else can see the world the way you see it.
No one else can feel your life the way you feel it. Thus it is impossible to ever 
compare two people because each stands on such different ground. 
When you compare yourself to others, you are inviting envy
into your consciousness; it can be a dangerous and destructive guest.”
~ John O'Donohue

With Spirit Full, I Live

"With arms outstretched I thank.

With heart beating gratefully I love.

With body in health I jump for joy.

With spirit full I live.
"

~Terri Guillemets



I have been under the weather with a summer cold, turned upper respiratory ailment for the past week or so and haven't had the energy to do much of anything. This morning, I received this wonderful note from one of my June 11th, first time workshop participants, Lynn Pechinski, who owns 1st Straw Marketing and Promotions. I rarely get much feedback from participants. Her card really made me feel great! Lynn clearly knows the power of gratitude and of making people feel special.


You can see amazing art from the last workshop here, where 5 of the 7 inkers were first timers!

The next scheduled "play"shop here is July 23rd. You can see details about the watercolor on Yupo paper "art experience" here. The early bird registration discount ends tomorrow, June 25th. 

It's not just a workshop, it's a full bodied "art experience"!

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that
the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."
~John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Thanks for your friendship and feedback everyone!!
I am grateful for you all.

Jerry's Yard Art at Sandarosa Studio

“I am enough of an artist to draw freely 
upon my imagination.
 Imagination is more important than knowledge. 
 Knowledge is limited. 
 Imagination encircles the world.” 
~ Albert Einstein

Haven't posted here in a few weeks,
so thought I'd post a few snaps from around the yard this morning.
Hubby, Jerry, has been busy beautifying the place.
Thought you might enjoy a peek!

Witchy-Poo is still enjoying the ride!

One of many.


Remember these?

Almost everything traded or found in trash.

New Studio Window - more about that later.

Nice touch Jer!

My new favorite! Jerry's King Crab. :-)
“Logic will get you from A to Z;
imagination will get you everywhere.”

Happy Summer everyone!!
