Alps' inspiration

Exploring

Life in the Alps has been busy, busy...

We have been skiing, visiting and exploring.

Reading

i always feel a pang of nostalgia when leaving the african continent...

luckily just before i left i had a good dose of african stories while devouring the third book of the "Langani Trilogy"

by Barbara & Stephanie Keating

an incredible tale of Africa's rawness, dilemmas and beauty.

"Savage stars pit the night

And I walk in borrowed light

To seek, to feel, to fly..."

Black and white

We've just had 3 days of solid rain...

A rare event in this part of the world

and i must admit... i love it!

While the sun is about to burn away the mist

i am inspired by black and white.

In my studio

New work happening in my studio,

i'm trying out some new brooches!

Turtle steps

"it's often the little things that go unnoticed

until we slow down enough to really see them"

Ali Edwards

Taking turtle steps towards

paying attention, being in the moment

and staying in constant creative motion.

How cute is this little guy... seems so old and wise!

New year, new intention...

As i was visualizing my year ahead i stumbled across

Susannah Conway's work, "Unravelling the year ahead".

Her question is:

"what is your word for 2011?"

I couldn't settle for one so these are my words for this year...

"Creativity in motion and serenity"

I feel bold, peaceful and inspired.

Happy New Year to you all!
