Thank you for showing up. (small ps...in three days I get to go see David Whyte in Byron Bay in Australia. Such an amazing writer and poet!) Blessings.

🌞Beautifull! Love how the creative process is about both "appearance" and "disappearance." 🌠

Also, what a joy to make art with our little ones! I have an entire CD of art my son & I created together when he was a toddler. 🎨💚

Fantastic! How rewarding to be creating art with your daughter. I started painting with my son when he was 2 years old and we have done several other creative projects together too!

So much beauty, Candace! I’m writing about the beauty of ritual, and I just realized routine and ritual are probably related.
