A quiet moment before escape. Time is counted, tools are gathered, and the destination is already marked. The treasure isn’t taken yet—not because it’s unknown, but because patience is part of the journey.

I have had an ongoing project called Hybrid Mythologies. Inspired by stories and mythological creatures, tales from different traditions and parts of the world, I have been playing with emergent stories, characters and creatures that incorporate different elements. It is really a kind of spontaneous, intuitive journey and play of associations - oftentimes surprising to myself in what emerges. This year I am planning to publish an artbook entitled Hybrid Mythologies and if it all goes according to plan, it should be done some time in May. I will post process from this book.

I created this card for someone to bring to a Law of Attraction event. I drew the flowers on textured paper, came up with the phrase, and then set the type. I am a professional Healer so this phrase is powerful advice I give to others in my practice.

The first of what became a "wheelchair series" I've been building as an attempt at healing since my paralysis. Learning to adjust and grow to appreciate and eventually love this new body continues to be a journey and doodling has proven (for me) to be an

When your girlfriend makes a random remark and that gives you incentive to create… not that I need much prompting!

Squids with a spiritual side.

Inspired by one of the bus routes I take back home from my Judo class in the evenings and how long said journey takes in terms of minutes… you’d think it was a quick trip but I assure you it’s not!

Years ago, I sketched Gibby at work—pencil in hand, bold strokes alive with motion. I caught them from over the shoulder: just the back of their head, the soft curve of their face, and that focused arm bringing something into being. They were 9 or 10 then, already showing the spark of creativity and concentration that pointed toward who they’d become. Now in their mid-20s, Gibby is thoughtful, insightful—quick to listen, slow to speak, and wired to process the world with care. Their path has been remarkable: two degrees in 2.5 years, no debt. That didn’t happen by accident. It took grit, German immersion schooling, 16 college credits earned in high school, and testing out of 24 more once at university. That’s Gibby—quietly determined, resourceful, and steady. But their story isn’t just academic. Gibby’s always been gifted with their hands—drawn to set design, locksmithing, welding. Trades they wanted to pursue early on, and still feel pulled toward. They’re at a bike shop now. It’s not the dream, but it fits: their hands know how to build, repair, and reshape the world. There’s been frustration—maybe even anger—that we didn’t let them follow the trade route right away. I get that now. Life veers, and sometimes the path chosen isn't the one imagined. But Gibby’s resilience—their ability to adapt and press on—is what I admire most. They’ve embraced their journey with honesty, stepping into their identity as a they/them person, unafraid to define success in their own terms. That takes courage. I’m proud of them—not for a résumé, but for who they are. This old drawing isn’t just a memory—it’s a thread connecting past to present. A reminder that the creative spark, the steady hands, the deep soul I saw back then is still shining. So here’s to you, Gibby: the kid who sketched with fire and the adult who still shapes the world with quiet brilliance. Your value has never been about the path you’re on. It’s about the person you are. And I’ll be here, cheering you on—every step of the way.

I have given my students the problem of creating 100 self portraits in 20 days on 5x7 in paper. The challenge is to create something other than an image that depicts a 'dead-pan' stare. When the brain is given a problem, it goes to work immediartely to solve that problem. I have seen some wonderful solutions. This is a tall order for teens who are sensative to judgment and still developing in thier perception. It has generated wonderful discussions of self-awareness, world view, and judgment. Those who engage in the exercise in an authentic manner have only good things to say about the experience. It is not an exercise for everyone. We are on a journey. Be Bold! Be Honest! Draw what you see. Draw what you think. -Peace

Caged is a collection of healing through deep inner journey work. Note: this is part of the process included while writing the final draft of my upcoming novel.

Sometimes a bench to sit down on after a long hike is just enough for that part of the journey.

The title comes from words I saw in a dream this weekend past. Chinese food before bed = interesting results for the sleepy mind.

Re-uploaded with some edits that no one will notice. The OC's name is Caroline Shelton. She belongs to the middle-upper class; her father is quite wealthy, so she knew no hardship much. But she is eccentric and zealously strives for knowledge, has many hobbies and is skilled in many things because of her pursuits. Basically, all she cared about in life was intellectual development. She had only one friend who could stand her personality and temper, James Holloway. Some time later, he disappeared, and Caroline received his bloodstained watch from an anonymous sender with no explanation, only the mailing address from which the anonymous sent the package. Caroline couldn't think of anything better than to dress up as a man and travel to the town the package came from, introducing herself as James Holloway and gaining fame with her skills. She hopes that if the anonymous hears about an albino man named James Holloway in the town where they might live, they'll contact her again when they hear about her. Her logic is this: this person sent a package containing something important to Jim to her, so they must know something about Jim, her, and their friendship, and if they hear Jim's name used by an albino, they'll understand everything. So she sets out on a dangerous journey, making herself a kind of beacon/signal for the anonymous sender to find them and through them to find Jim or learn what happened to him. She'll meet Tommy during this search.

HACK ZACK TECH helped me regain faith in the cryptocurrency industry Like many, I was drawn to the potential of Bitcoin as a lucrative investment. With excitement and high hopes for my financial future, I invested $52,000 in Bitcoin. The prospects seemed endless, and for a while, everything appeared to be on track. I watched as my investment grew, and I felt secure in the belief that this decision would pay off handsomely in the long run. But then, disaster struck. A security breach, a misplaced transfer, and an unexpected technical failure led to the loss of my entire Bitcoin investment. I was devastated. In an instant, the $52,000 I had worked so hard to accumulate was gone. I was paralyzed by shock and regret. What felt like a promising venture had turned into a nightmare. The weight of the loss was crushing, and I couldn’t fathom how I would recover from it. For weeks, I was in a state of disbelief. I tried contacting various recovery services, but each attempt ended in disappointment or frustration. It seemed like no one could help, and my hope for recovering my investment began to dwindle. The thought that I would never see my $52,000 again was overwhelming, and I was left wondering if my financial future was lost forever. I came onto HACK ZACK TECH at that point. I was dubious at first. I've been disappointed previously, and scammers abound in the cryptocurrency recovery industry. But after learning about HACK ZACK TECH track record and reading good reviews, I made the decision to give them a try. They appeared to be my final hope, and I had nothing left to lose. The road to recovery was not easy, and there were times when I felt anxious about the outcome. However, HACK ZACK TECH team was always responsive and diligent. They applied their deep knowledge of blockchain and cryptocurrency recovery strategies, and I could see that they were determined to help me every step of the way. Then, after what seemed like an eternity of waiting, I received the news I had been praying for: my $52,000 in Bitcoin had been successfully recovered. The relief I felt was indescribable. What seemed like an impossible situation had been turned around, and thanks to HACK ZACK TECH, I had my investment back. This was a truly transforming event. I moved from a state of hopelessness and financial ruin to one of recuperation. In addition to returning my $52,000, HACK ZACK TECH helped me regain faith in the cryptocurrency industry. Their passion, professionalism, and knowledge were genuinely transformative. They turned my disaster into a success story, and I am forever grateful for their role in restoring my investment. Thanks to them, I now feel empowered to continue my journey in the world of cryptocurrency without the constant fear of loss."My sincere gratitude.
