I lived on the Hawaiian island of Kauai for several years, on the other side of the island from this lovely beach. We used to go there once in a while to picnic. It took us an hour to drive there, but was so worth going. I often wonder what it looks like now, as […]

EMERGING
For the first two covid months of lockdown, I felt like I was drowning – in too much grogginess, too much where’s the money, too much confusion, anger and fear. I decided things had to change in a big way. A dear friend was kind enough to give me some real feedback: that I was […]
SAN BLAS 2, 3 and 4
I have really enjoyed playing with my new sets of pastels! Here are 3 more images of the beach at San Blas. My favorite is #4.
SURELY, FISH KNOWS THE WAY
I’m not an adherent of any recognizable religion – my folks never went to church, so I never got the classic religious conditioning many kids did in the 50s when I grew up. But I did have a few pretty traumatizing events happen in my teens that made me keenly aware of my mortality. By […]
MANDALA: SACRED
A friend of mine posted on FB today, asking how old we were when we got our first traffic ticket. This little story popped into my mind right off: I would have been 22. I was late learning how to drive – I had driving-phobia. So one day I took it upon myself to get […]
KO’OLINA
I read an article recently that brought back vivid memories of when I first came to Maui, in 1966. My BF at the time and I were flat broke, and had no place to stay. So we went down to the beach just to the north of LaHaina, and found a secluded patch of trees […]
LIFE
When I was in Gore, New Zealand in 2000-2 as Artist-in-Residence, I painted around 50 paintings. Because I had thought of myself as primarily a stone sculptor, I was surprised to see so many of them just flowing right out of my hands! Someone asked me where I got inspiration for them all. There are […]
LEARNING to LOVE MYSELF NO MATTER WHAT
I’m not sure why everyone thinks they need to write about the current happenings (referring to the wave of black people being killed by cops and unmarked special ops troops). Yes, it is horrifying. Yes, I detest it, just as you do. But it’s not as if any of us are ‘experts’ or even come […]
DEER PRAYER
In late 1999, I was house-sitting for some friends in Tesuque, NM. (pronounced tess-OO-kee) It was bloody cold – maybe you don’t know this, but Santa Fe is 7000′ above sea level, and Tesuque is a bit higher. There was snow that morning; my blankies weren’t sufficient, and being naturally a tropical gal, I was […]
FROGGIE!
I’m not sure what year this is from – probably around ’78 or so, since this is stoneware, and I hadn’t switched to porcelain yet. I went through a big froggies phase – painting them on tiles, vases, mugs, plates and platters – in greens and blacks and browns – not sure why – it […]
My Heart Is Broken
I see the world in terms of the Heart – what other way is there to view it if we are to remain at all sane? It has to be the very fundamental core of everything. Sometimes as I read news items, my heart feels like it’s being ripped and slashed out of me by […]
Dark Horse Rising
At first I thought this was way too dark to even be seen. But when you see the 11″ x 14″ giclée (print on canvas), it’s stupendous. My prints on paper are really beautiful … and then again, the giclées are 5 steps up in color and saturation. I love this!
Happy 2017!!!
How many years have you set great goals for the new year…and ended up not doing them – and then feeling bad about it? Ugh! Me too. And not only that, but on top of not doing what I said I’d do, I felt bad about it, and then felt bad about feeling bad! How […]
Change Your Mind! with EFT: the Basics –
I’ve gone over and revised my Signature EFT book, Change Your Mind with EFT, the Basics. When I revised it, I was frankly amazed at how good it is! I expected to have to change and update a whole lot of stuff in it, but all I did was rewrite a few sentences and reformat […]
“She Betrayed Me!”
My friend “Benji,” a coloring book artist, told me that, after discussing with her friend an idea that she was working on, that same friend went off and created and published the very same kind of work. “What really bugged me was not just that she stole my idea, but that she posted it as […]
COLOR: Special Collector’s Edition
Celebrating! My first hard-cover collector’s edition of my abstract paintings is finally out! This is huge for me! Huge! I’m so very excited about it! I’m adding pix of a whole bunch of pages below to let you see how I’ve taken the alcohol inks, which are featured in this book, in many directions. I […]
Do You Allow Your Inner Guidance?
Have you ever wanted to keep doing something you love, but it just seemed like something was in the way? I’ve felt like that. I couldn’t figure out what what to do. Finally, I made a very simple, very powerful decision: that I’d let my intuition and connection to Spirit guide me more than ever. […]
My New Book Is Out!
Harlyn and Griffyn Get Lost I’m so excited to announce that my new book is now ready in print on Amazon.com and also on the Kindle! I just got my copies today, and they look gorgeous – nice white paper and crispy clear brilliant colors. Woohoo! What’s it about? Harlyn and Griffyn, twin brother and […]
I Posted, “I Need A Hug!” and Got over 10
Do you ask for what you want … and get it? Last week I had a pretty big upset about something. It ran very deep, and made me feel like I wanted to just pop out of my skin and run away and hide. But I’m one of the lucky ones! I have a lovely […]
I’m Back! Retiring Ain’t All It’s Cracked
Many years ago, my dad, who was a sought-after executive recruiter in New York City, retired at the age of 65. (Yup, he really did wear bow-ties – and tied them himself – none of those cheater clip on things!) At first, he loved all that time on his hands! He spent hours in his […]
Do You Know How to Use the Secret Mirror?
If you have ever felt like you just didn’t have it in you to do something (like marketing your work!), and dithered along believing that you just couldn’t do it, or didn’t want to even try – for months! years! – here’s something that will help. Recently I was turned on to Dr. Joe Vitale’s […]
I Love Low-Key Marketing!
I’m not a hypester or brash self-promo kind of person, so pushing my work has always been hard for me. I mention my latest article HERE because, yes, of course I want you to go see my artwork and read the article…. AND, because it’s a great example of very low-key marketing. Thai Nguyen, one […]
Dianne Collins on Daring Dreamers Radio: ...
I’m really pleased to bring you Dianne Collins, the amazing woman who wrote, Do You Quantum Think? New Thinking that Will Rock Your World. I think most of us can relate to what Dianne discusses re living your dream and making money – this was a fun interview for me! You’ve probably heard the expression, […]
The Pleiadian Protocol to Reduce Excess B...
Have you ever had a long spell of feeling really great, and then, completely out of the blue, one day you wake up almost in panic, or extreme distress? That’s what happened to me last week, with a very deeply felt personal worry. Even tapping only went so far to get me any relief. Just […]

Does YOUR Website Reflect Your Brand and ...
Does YOUR Website Reflect Your Brand and Your Personality? I’m really tired of hyped-up programs telling you how to build a website that cost you thousands. It just isn’t necessary. So I’m always on the lookout for people who do good honest work for way less than the norm. I found Pamela Wilson a couple […]
How to Get Unstuck Easily and Quickly for...
Over the past few weeks, many of you have written me saying you feel stuck right now. Yes. It’s the change of seasons, and if you understand such things, it’s also Mercury retrograde. You’re not alone. Dealing with being stuck has been a very common theme in my life. I used to want to end […]
What to Do When You Feel Like, “I Just Ca
I received a note from someone today who said she felt torn between doing this and that and couldn’t make up her mind, and it was starting to make her feel crazy. Can you relate? I sure can! It’s never a question of WHAT to do, it’s always a question of WHEN. A few years […]
