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.

Nelson Mandela July 18th, 1918 – December 5th, 2013

"We can change the world and make it a better place.  It is in your hands to make a difference."



Thank you for your courage, your wisdom, your strength and conviction.  Thank you for your humanity, your perfect imperfection, and the example you set for our world.  Thank you for your brilliant light.  May it shine all the more from the other side and continue to guide us in finding balance, compassion, and equality.  Rest in peace Nelson Mandela, you will be missed.
