Keep In the Sunlight

or worry about what may never happen. 

Keep in the sunlight."

The Art of Art

Looking eastward

"The art of art... is simplicity."

Simple Contemplation

Meditation, prayer, and an empty mind. 

The birds know the sky.

A Grand Teacher

"A garden is a grand teacher."

~ Gertrude Jekyll

Small little patches of work. My top garden is so huge, so I have many patches to tend to, but I am so satisfied by the baby steps, what I am able to do, with time and love.

Here's the result of two mornings -- yesterday and today -- waiting for the sunrise.

We are here for only a short time. Let's live with joy, show those we love that we do, and create our art.

Before

After

 "All gardens are a form of autobiography."
