During the quarantine, I began taking longer walks and slower bike rides, noticing the beauty in nature and discarded things.  I noticed my values and my community’s values start to shift.

I would never had predicted people would be buying all the beans and toilet paper off the shelves, but cheap gasoline and cruise vacations would be rejected.  Everyone started baking bread and going for walks on the trails with their families.

Color Pairing bold colors like turquoise and red is like wading in a cool river in a hot canyon.

I like to think of color as a divine language unknown to the speaker.

I have never experienced the gift of speaking in tongues, but when I sit before my palette, I ask God to surprise me with a combination of unusual colors like light green and cranberry, or dark brown and coral.
