Describe some of your early experiences with reading, writing, & art ~
As a young child I went through books like a silk moth on a mulberry tree. Over the rhythm of a life I've kept a journal both written and visual. From my mother I inherited a love for horses and drew hundreds of them on reams of paper my dad brought home from work. I started making up stories early on mostly in my mind, only a few were captured on paper. Given a Brownie camera at 12 I started observing colour, texture and light and this developed into my silk designs today.
Things in life that make you happiest right now ~ my son living close and spending quality time together, my 3 lively grand- children, the freedom to concentrate on my creative work
Daily rituals ~ one hour reading divine literature which gives me a sense of stable eternal principles to guide my day, appreciative prayer, running or walking in nature refreshes my body, mind and spirit, writing poems or style notes
Do you remember dreams, and can you share an insight from one for your life? ~ once I dreamt of walking across a sunlit expanse of white rocks towards a verdant meadow where a line of magnificent magnolia trees stood. I recalled seeing them in full glossy leaf yet now I moved close to one and fell to my knees under its branches. Not one single green leaf remained only thousands of the most gorgeous ivory gold blossoms all which were lit and glowing, no shadows marred this feast of beauty. I knelt looking up into this vision overwhelmed with intense joy.
