I loved meeting up with you. I would never have done it without your motivation!

Starting early on a Sunday morning in the park while listening to the birds and watching waterfowl navigate the wetland, jump started our conversation about living in this complicated world as artists. We talked about art making in this moment – how ego, life experiences, meditating, and economics all drive our art and pragmatism. Our attempts to put words together while trying to navigate watercolors, we discovered early on, was somewhat futile. I do think Leslie managed this far better than I, who was quite taken by a duck.

Taking time and sitting in patience are the roots of magic, friendship, and art. As a glorious moments of the poppies fades, so beautiful still in it’s decay those memories captured by the joy of painting, or not, part of our poppies lifecycle. It is wonderful to recall the power of making art with out expectation.
