Milne's Sneezles and Wheezles Poem [http://allpoetry.com/poem/8518987-Sneezles-by-A.A._Milne]<br /><br />Stopped in at your etsy shop--loved the 'Glowing Eucalyptus Sprouts.'

Every once in a while I remember the Tibetan monks I watched making an intricate sand painting for two weeks and then ceremonially committing it to a local creek. While art comes from a deep well, maybe it is intended to flow instead of being frozen into a "thing."Joyce Wycoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03742084748092724299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509618966426341576.post-16593315400417506642012-01-17T09:14:01.340-08:002012-01-17T09:14:01.340-08:00Love this, Joyce.

Wonderful metaphor as well as beautiful, literal application of the bake sale learning.<br /><br />I remember asking myself once, "How would I act differently if I tended myself as lovingly as I tend my garden?" I think there are broad applications for many lessons we learn along the road of life. Thank you for bringing this one to the fore.Pamela Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476316799150084354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509618966426341576.post-69612498494877980212012-01-17T08:48:24.485-08:002012-01-17T08:48:24.485-08:00Love it!!Love it!!Claudia Truenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509618966426341576.post-57705359375076079302012-01-17T07:43:28.278-08:002012-01-17T07:43:28.278-08:00Love the analogy and story Joyce.

Sometimes, someone buys a piece I created and I say goodbye, lovingly wishing it well in its new home. sometimes, I simply change the art to reflect the season, my mood, travels - anything I feel like.<br /><br />And that's the nice part about Louise Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13522775693728655487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509618966426341576.post-88453040034689073212012-01-17T07:43:15.549-08:002012-01-17T07:43:15.549-08:00Love that perspective, and food for thought.

Oh, forgot you can also see her photography in Morro Bay. Also check out the calendar on line and come chat with the artist when she sits the gallery.Vivian Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15760364319705013669noreply@blogger.com
