Depression is a sneaky bastard. I have experienced it all my life, and because I didn’t know how to handle it, I was even suicidal for years … until 20 years ago when I found EFT, the Emotional Freedom Techniques (in case you’re wondering, find out about it here). As I began to use EFT, […]

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 […]
Stop Center-Justifying Your Text! It’s to
Do you know the sure sign of an amateur graphic designer or copywriter? It’s when they create lengthy text in a document that is center-justified. Lengthy meaning over 55 characters wide, and longer than 5 to 10 lines. Here’s an example of center-justified text: The only text that should be centered is: 1. a short […]
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 […]
For Thine Ears Only
I painted this when I was Artist-in-Residence, down in Gore on the South Island of New Zealand. I had a dream where these women were shocked at my sharing how cool EFT/tapping was. I was shocked that they were shocked, and finally got them to see how important it is that we know how incredibly […]
Time to Raise Your Prices!
Last weekend, I went down to the local art center where about 50 artists run a coop gallery so I could sign up for the Open Studios Art Tour. I was pleased to see some pretty good work there. And surprised at one painting in particular. This painting was about 11″ x 14″ – good […]
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 […]
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. […]
Did You Get Your FREE Book yet?
The Real Money Secrets is a book I created several years ago as a spoof on all the weird, funny and wacky ways people strive to get more money. I decided to update and republish it because, at the very least, it was make you laugh, helping you make your day a little lighter. And […]

The Big Bad Wolf Steals the Magic I’m so excited to announce that book #2 in the Twisted Tales series, The Big Bad Wolf Steals the Magic, is now ready in print on Amazon.com and also on the Kindle! I just got my copies in the mail today, and they look gorgeous – nice white […]
Do You Speak UP?
“How Do You Speak Up Fearlessly?” I’ve been speaking up a lot on Facebook about the recent situation in Indiana where war has pretty much been declared on gay people. They are trying to instigate a new law there saying that it’s OK for businesses to discriminate against and not serve gay people. I received […]
Wish You Had Someone Who’d Listen to You
That’s me. I’ll absolutely do that for you! I’m really good at it, because I really care about you and want you to succeed – whatever that personally means for you. And I have this amazing (even to me!) knack of being able to see how you can do things better in your life, emotions, […]
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 […]
Who Do You Know Who Is Suffering Needless...
Who Do You Know Who Is Suffering Needlessly? I bet you know at least one person who’s fighting anger, depression, irritability, nightmares and unwanted memories. Maybe a vet, or a public service person from any arm of the military, police, coast guard or fire department. Maybe someone who’s been abused, gone through any kind of […]
DO Something!
Lately I’ve been cruising Facebook a bunch. Probably too much. I get hooked by the posts on what’s happening out there in the world. Many of them are really upsetting to me – reports of heinous things people do to each other, and what we, human kind – or rather, humans-not-so-kind – are doing to […]
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 […]
