Once upon a time, my first love was the lens. Photography and digital art allowed me to capture and create worlds where imagination sparked magic. That love never really leftāit's the other half of my creative heart! This photo of witches conjuring lightning captures that sense of wonder that initially drew me to visual art. It reminds me how, when we dabble across different creative expressions, each medium somehow fuels and transforms the other.
Working with clay grounds me, letting me feel textures and shapes emerge in my hands. But when I step behind the camera or dive into digital art, Iām reminded to look beyond whatās tangibleāto experiment, dream, and see the world through the lens of fantasy. Bouncing back and forth between media helps each process evolve in ways I could never plan. Both photography and pottery keep me inspired, connected, and endlessly curious.
Hereās to conjuring creativity wherever it strikes! š„š«

we live by the sun in a cloak of light,
where golden threads weave day and night, each dawnās fire whispers spells anew, awakening fields still veiled in dew.
yet promises bloom by the silvered moon, where shadows dance in a sacred tune, a vow sown in midnightās shade, bound by stars while some fade
for this is the season, betwixt and between, when veils grow thin and sights unseen, we walk with spirits through autumnās door, in mists and shadows, on the earthen floor.
by sun, I wander, by moon, I swear,
In life, in death, forever there, with herbs and stones, by candleās gleam, bound to magic and whispered dreams

Grounding or earthing through bare feet involves connecting your body directly to the Earth's surface. The Earth carries a natural electrical charge, and making direct contact with it allows for the transfer of electrons from the Earth to your body.
It feels even deeper when you can share that with someone you love š«¶

Black and white photographs are my love letters to photography. Without the distraction of color, the composition, texture, and contrast between light and shadows create a sense of depth that can be very striking.

".... If the mind
could be held in one place,
it would be here, in the stillness
of this place. But it is always
moving on, thinking of things
it cannot hold--of time and love,
of the lapwing calling out across
the acres of ripe wheat, or the forgotten
stones of the long, crumbling walls."
part of the poem "Cascade" by Mary Oliver

Some of the wildest mushrooms in the world have the most interesting traits. From bioluminescence to zombie-like insect mind-control, foul offending odors, scary tentacles, slime, parasitic thievery, archival canvas properties for art, vibrantly natural pigments, thousands of reproductive genders, healing compounds, antioxidants and adaptogens for internal health... and most intricately, a network of nutrients for nearby roots and plants
there's probably a ton more.
But, is any of this surprising to you?

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
