I was overwhelmed thinking about preparing for the first Art Walk of the Year.
To much. I thought about backing out. - note cards, fiber art pieces, purses, clutches, linocut art prints, pastel, acrylic, oil, mixed media, collages, large pieces, small pieces, art from my books, my books!
When I feel that way, I’ve learned to sit back, be still, listen and wait. As a reward for my practice of patience, calm and peace replaced my concern.
I know what I can do now. I know what I want to share. No message could be more clear.

CONSTANT 8” x 8”, oil & cwm, wood cradle Uninterrupted waves. I am fortified by consistency. Unfailing peace. Peace comes from a constant source that never varies. My peace comes from constant belief in purpose and devotion to our Heavenly Father. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. —Anthony Robbins
