Tidings of Thanksgiving

Swift the passing days, each moment capturing a glimpse of the retreating Autumn.  Where has the time gone? Hours carried away, scattered by the unending Prairie winds.  And here we stand, on the cusp of another holiday.  

Very little will get done in the studio this week, as we are expecting company, which brings hearth and home to the forefront in preparation.  I don't mind... I don't mind a bit!  

This year Thanksgiving will be very different than Thanksgiving's past. It will be a quieter celebration, fewer souls to gather 'round... a result of an ever-changing family dynamic.  But this is life, and the constant challenge for each of us is the ability to embrace change.  

Today, I am grateful for a well-spring of wonderful holiday memories, and I eagerly anticipate a future of new moments shared with the ones I love.

*Just a few updates from the studio.... 

 - It has been a whirlwind of excitement, carefully packing and shipping all of my new 2013 Nature Inspired Birds Calendars.  I genuinely appreciate all who have supported me and my art!  There are only 14 Daily Planners left, and profits from remaining calendar sales will be donated to a Hurricane Sandy Relief Fund. I hope you will join me in helping those effected by this terrible storm.
