I'M HERE TO EMPOWER YOU!

I’m an artist . . . but that’s not saying much, because I believe, and it is something that I have devoted my time heavily to convey, that art expression is an inherent property of human nature. The media may vary, but not the innate disposition.

Those that know me have heard my “talent-as-myth” diatribe all too often, and if you end up tuning in to my posts, you will encounter it soon enough. It is my goal to change the notion, which a great number of people resign to, that one needs to have “talent” to pursue the art they feel or want and am doing this on a daily basis through my program in the G+ Mentorship Program for Photographers.

With that as preface, I will probably devote a portion of my posts to inspiring artists, but I also plan to impart other conceptions that I have about life in general, with the goal of elevating, encouraging, enlivening or energizing those who read them.

Let me begin with this:

I wish for you the ability to create for yourself all that your heart desires.

Start!

    It is such a pretty flower🌷 I love the color red. The color is a love color. You have amazing eyes for nature and photography. My sister she loves nature too. She likes to go for long walks and as she is walking if she sees a flower. She bends down and smells the pedals. She rubs the flower against her nose and looks up at the sky😊She really appreciates everything under the sun. I love how she is https://youtu.be/ue0MAhUzaJA I need to be more thankful for all of God's creations as well. Thank you for this picture and every comment under it 😎👍Robin Griggs Wood

    How good s that, to have a son married: my sons, sadly, are not - and not for want of trying. They're both rather 'picky' - and intelligent - extremely hardworking, (to a fault) and kind. Just never found that right one. (Perhaps they'll suddenly find lovely white-haired ladies later!) Whatever - that is a glorious flower portrait - not a snap ..
