Hi. Just a few words to say why I've been away for three months. That's how long it's been since I walked away from my marriage. I also walked away from my creative life for awhile.

For all of you wonderful, thoughtful people who want to send me art supplies, thank you but no thank you. I don't have a place for them at the current time but I am touched to the heart by your generosity. When I am able to rebuild, the tools will follow.

Thank you for your messages and thoughtfulness. I am more grateful than I can say.
