a long time coming

i've been meaning to write this for a WHILE.
that's an understatement.
just an update. new art, exciting life.

here's the fabulous harrison (from ghana) doing what he does best at the small village foundation auction dinner a couple of weeks ago. an amazing evening with the most perfect team of drummers sounding a steady heart beat for us all. thank you, thank you.

i can hardly believe that i was in africa almost two years ago! 
a life-touching trip with the wonderful small village foundation of boise.
where did the time go?

the garden initiative has showed me how tremendously generous people are. willing to give an
hour, to meet for a chat, to write a kind email. when you take the time to share your passion people jump over hurdles to help you reach the finish line. so inspiring.

here's just one example of this love. the turtle tree seed biodynamic seed initiative in copake, new york donated seeds! lots and lots of seeds for us to plant in our community garden. the beautiful thing about this gift, is that like a stone thrown into a pond, the ripples will never stop expanding. teaching a mother or father how to grow their own food not only helps them feed themselves, it is the beginning of a lifetime of healthy eating and education for their children. and on and on and on. forever.

beautiful, beautiful seeds.
grow into beautiful vegetables.

go now, and check out their inspired work.

some new artwork. 
before and after.
color makes quite a difference, doesn't it?

"there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people."

and some more...


nice thoughts to leave on. soul and peace. 
peaceful soul. soulful peace.
