link love & advice

 I found THIS great link from Beth over on her Studio Fuller Blog that I wanted to share with you for the start of the week.  It got me thinking about what sort of advice I would give my former self in regards to being an artist. While cleaning out a box of papers the other day I re-found this sweet letter from my friend Caren (bottomland), and she said with great clarity what my advice would be:

"Remember that passion doesn't always 

have to be explosive and inspired. 

Sometimes it is quiet, determined, and steady."

And lastly, a little glimpse of the kids at our tadpole filled water feature HERE.
