You always find the best art–I love the thought you put into the selection each time.
Such an interesting question about what comes up when you look deeply–and something I’ve been paying attention to all weekend. Something I’ve noticed now that my house is “finished” (the major construction/rehab/painting, anyway) is that I’m finally really *seeing* my surroundings. I was wearing blinders because of the chaos and dust everywhere, and it’s been so relaxing to just sink in and *live* here. Thank you for asking such a lovely question!

@Jessica – Wow. How powerful. It’s like you peeled off your coarse, protective layer and now the space can envelop and nourish you.

Really made me think….making your home a nourishing environment. Always felt that way for my kids, but should also for myself. Great inspiration!

@Michelle – You’re welcome! I look forward to more.
@Colleen – Considering how stressful life can be, everyone deserves a nourishing home – or at least a nourishing little corner! Our hearts just need this.

Felt dreamy and alive…like all that I make matter doesn’t when I get down to the essence of life…the joy, profound joy, of living…
