Meet Brooke Wilson ...

Meet Brooke Wilson ... The first time I saw Brooke's work I truly fell in love with the whimsy and magical feel that is attached to every piece she creates. I was hoping she would agree that the above "fairy on her mushroom" was a perfect fit for Whimsical Wednesday here at Living in the Moment - I am grateful she was in agreement!

She is the creator of Run Away Violet Art & Design. Please check out her beautiful artwork. Many of her pieces include mermaids, beautiful portraiture, inspirational quotes etc ... I am sure memories of your childhood will emerge while viewing her site.

Many thanks to Brooke for bringing such a creative piece to my blog (and into my creative world!).

  2. Sonja - You amaze me - That is "why" I loved it so much - Yes, it had the whimsy I wanted - but the heart made it "all" complete ... You and I are "always" on the same wavelength ... Soul Sisters, No Doubt!

  3. WOW!! Thank you so much Kristine. I'm so very thrilled to see my little "Fairy Lovesong" artwork featured here on your beautiful blog. I love seeing what you come up with on Whimsical Wednesday. I think this may be the first time anyone has blogged about Run Away Violet. How exciting. Thank you again.

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way.

At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated
