There is a chill to the morning air. You run and grab your sweater. You see pumpkins and sunflowers in the stores or in your garden ready for picking. You take a brisk walk and when you return you savor your favorite warm drink~Autumn is in the air again! ~

If a man . . . can paint a landscape, and convey into souls and ochres all the enchantments of Spring or Autumn; it is certain that the secret cannot be kept; the first witness tells it to a second, and men go by fives and tens and fifties to his doors.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Affirmation's

These are journal pages I did about me. It has been awhile since I did these two pages and I feel I need to do some new pages with affirmations on them. I am constantly battling which direction to go in and how I feel about myself and my art work. I need to re clarify my goals for myself personally and professionally. It has been almost one year since I left my job and started a new path for myself which has been centered around my love of art. The quotes below have a lot of meaning to me. I hope they inspire you to follow your dreams.

First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
Epictetus

Every artist was first an amateur. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy are those who dream dreams and are ready to pay the price to make them come true. Leon J. Suenes
