"We all march together for love is divine..."

I adore the period in our cultural and creative history cultivated between the 1880s and the 1950s, particularly the Aesthetic movement, Arts and Crafts movement, Art Nouveau movement, and early Art Deco movement. I have a deep appreciation for the arts, design styles, architecture, fashion, music and all creative modalities that emerged within this magical segment in time. I love to write, dance, paint, and embrace the creative process in general. This blog is my attempt at merging my chosen forms of self expression with the beauty of the present moment, and the beauty of the past. All work is written or created by me unless cited as otherwise, and protected under copyright law. Bon voyage et bonne chance!

Moet et Cristal


Champagne
Tickles my brain
Tiny pirouetting bubbles
Rise
Leaping towards the rim of my glass
Sparking adoration
Elevating mind and soul
Sinous
Organic
Sharp as a shiny tack

I See You

Crisp bright sun
Cracks a grin
Cooling atmospheres
Making way for new beginnings....
