Creative Kings & Queens

The Truth About Being Human It was stolen from us… creativity. Some were fortunate to have been raised in creative households, where we were encouraged to be artistically free. The rest of us don’t believe or know we are creative. The truth is that we all are creative, no matter who we are or what […]

Creativity with Music

Picking it Up Again I see sparks fly as musical notes fill the air. The depth and wonder of sound resonate artfully in my heart. My body feels the vibration as the music washes over, through, and inside of me. My mind wants and waits for that perfect note. My mind stretches outside of my […]

Promises

We Are Actually promises Recently, one morning I was driving up the Cajon Pass on the 15 freeway from Rancho Cucamonga towards Apple Valley, California. I was on my way to a Spiritual conference to learn more about discerning good and evil in every area of life. It was raining and I saw a rainbow […]

Creativity at Church

Prophetic Art I like to do prophetic art during our worship time at church — sometimes dodging flags and dancers. First I pray, asking Holy Spirit what He wants me to draw and I get into my Bible and read. I always begin to see part of an image, colors and shapes but I don’t […]

I Can’t Help It

I Have to Sculpt People It’s been a while, but I had fun making this guy. I’ll do some finishing touches and wait several months before firing him. Let’s pray he doesn’t bust open in the kiln. I’m still learning…. What should I call him? “Life motivation comes from the deep longings of the heart, […]

If You Don’t Mind

I’ll Share My Creativity Something has been bothering me lately. How can I host and maintain four blogs with podcasts on three of them, and videocasts on one? I’m an artist and author and have a lot happening in my life regarding my health. I have been diagnosed with five rare diseases or disorders, yep […]

I’ve Lied to You

I wrote this over a year ago… and it’s still true. I feel despair often, but I am still here… trying and overcoming everyday that I don’t give-in to the “suicide” disease CRPS. Hope is a powerful thing and Love that much more. I want to thank all the people in my life that haven’t […]

Free/Gratis

It called to me as it rested in the shade somewhat near the trunk of a beautiful Jacaranda tree. I caught sight of it from the corner of my eye as I drove by on the winding road. There was a sign on it and I had to know what it said. I turned around […]

Trying new Media

What’s the worst thing that can happen? I love to try new mediums of art. It’s a blast to discover new ways of making something beautiful, while having fun doing it. Let me just emphasize the fun part! It’s about having fun, not what the results will be. When something turns out nice, all the […]

Looking for a Magic Bullet

I know that a lot of people are looking for healing. Many people hope and pray and expect to be healed all at once, declaring it to be so. I confess I’m looking for that magic bullet too, and I don’t believe in engaging in magic. I’ve been waiting for a miracle and in the […]
