Make it

“I have never tried that before, so I think that I should definitely be able to do that.” -Pippi Longstocking

Artists are dreamers, problem solvers, innovators, and “boundary-pushers”- venturing into unexplored territory with excitement and a little fear.  I have learned to embrace this discomfort and launch into the discovery of what will unfold as the process will lead me to where I must go.  And the scribbles, paint strokes, musings, and ghosts of ideas past will tell a story.  Come along for the ride!
