I am interested in the way that one art form inspires, adds to or helps interpret another. Often I write in my journal while listening to live performances of music, traveling on the stream the notes carry me down. Writing what the music evokes is a way to move more deeply inside the music. This is a space for exploring the way poetry overlaps, expands on or interweaves with music, art, and photography.

loved scrolling through these…as if experiencing some of the many pensive moments of their making. I’m inspired to look more seriously at my neighbor trees.
Thank you for looking at my efforts toward learning to draw. Each tree has its own architecture and structure, presenting different challenges. I find drawing them both challenging and meditative.
