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.

    Hello sweet Bee! Beautiful purple this is.. The top is similar to something we get here in BC called Nap Weed.. I love the purple tops.. Does this plant grow in the Wild where you live? I love the stem on this one Xo

    ReplyDelete
  55. Robin Griggs WoodSeptember 25, 2018 at 11:39 AM

    Melanie Marshall -- it's actually a very large flower, an artichoke in bloom! (We eat the bud of the flower as artichokes in the market.) It is related to the thistle (I don't know what nap weed is).
