The Gift of the Hummingbird: Love Never Ends
It’s almost that time of year again—hummingbird season. I recently felt inspired to put my love for these precious creatures to paper, and I ended up with two very different pieces of artwork.

The Gift of Shadows
A shadow is a shape that’s formed when an object blocks light from a source. In the case of this particular photo, that object was my cat, Sassy. Shadows are revelatory of whatever is blocking light. I guess you could say shadows are something to be grateful for as they reveal to us things, things…

The Gift of Poetry: Find Me on Fiverr
The other day a coworker asked me to write a poem for her daughter’s 13th birthday. If you know me, you know I’m passionate about poetry. I remember writing my very first poem; I was seven years old expressing my love for ice cream and it’s many flavors. My passion for poetry carried over into…
