Thanks…
I’ve just checked into my blog to find that I’ve had visitors from Monica Magness’s blog, so I rushed over there to check it out… it is wonderful, to quote Monica ‘Anything you have to say, you can SAY it with art!’ … Monica is talking about a dare … daring to share your mess… well I already did so… right here … if you want to take a look..

The above spoke to me, I found it via a link, Spirit of Trees, on a blog called Spirit Cloth, this is a wonderful blog full of great work, ideas, links and inspiration. I really must start scanning/posting some of my work.
Must try to remember this quote!
I was following links, as one does, and came across the following quote
Be content with what you have;
rejoice in the way things are.
When you realise there is nothing lacking,
the whole world belongs to you.
Tao Te Ching, in verse 44, Lao Tzu (translation Stephen Mitchell)
I found it on Robin Paris blog my first visit but an interesting blog and website.

I’ve tried to upload a picture of my work several times now both last night and this morning, but with no success, so I thought I’d try just sending a message with no picture….
