My Gardens – A Welcome Home
August 27th, 2015I’m back home after an incredible journey that was deep and wide. A journey that opened new doors of creativity, community and connection.

In My Garden

Flower Mandalas – From My Garden
October 3rd, 2014I haven’t been taking time this year to photograph flowers from my garden as the flower mandalas they are. These are flower portraits that show the amazing details of their mandalas shapes …. When I do this my heart hurts from the intensity of beauty I see. I am reminded that at every moment this beauty is there and yet I am seldom aware of it and wonder why I am not in a perpetual state of amazement.

Sweet Nectarines – From My Garden
July 31st, 2014My nectarine tree looks beautiful in a garden bed in the front of house. It is lovely simply as a good looking tree, but it also shares its sweet fruit for a week or so in July. Getting the fruit from tree to kitchen isn’t always easy. It’s a race between the bird, squirrels, bugs and me to see who gets to eat the prized fruit. This year I got the prize.
