It's Been A Long Long Time Coming

Ahhhhh....... I know it has been the longest duration that I have not posted. sorry if i left you hanging. it's been a busy couple of months learning to teach, working on my art, spending any spare time with family & friends, traveling, reading & researching...really submerging myself within the experience, time & opportunity that I have to grow. 

Part of this has been thinking about how to more effectively share my photo diary possibly elsewhere, no offense to blogger...but its too time consuming & not intuitive enough...any suggestions are welcomed & greatly appreciated.

Until this is resolved, I shall promise to do my best to keep this blog up, running & hopefully somewhat interesting.

Thank you to all of you who do take the time to take a look! I greatly appreciate it!!! 

Al Green - A Change Is Gonna Come

the following events take place between 06:25:12 and 07/16/12

continuing on the theme of trying at least 1 new thing a week has been one of the greatest ideas I have had in a long time. it is very important for me to satiate not only the budding studio artist within but also the social artist who desires to connect with others face to face. i have had some of the best intimate, interesting & inspiring conversations with people that I barely know while engaging in these new activities.i have also been using this lovely time of the year to reconnect (because it's practically impossible during the school year)with my family & friends (old & new), through fun all american summer activities.
