A new journey. I did not expect to feel excitement when moving from this home. This was my home with Thomas! A lot of love and laughter in here! It has always felt warm and cozy____but that had to do with us. I am glad I took on the mindset that I would treat the rest of my life as being on an adventure.
I am certain there will be things I will miss. But there is much to gain in living closer to my older daughter, and then we simply travel together or on our own to see my middle daughter and son! I am thinking of getting a camper van. I can think of a lot of things I can do with one of these. Like visiting friends and family, camping, meeting up and camping, and doing some Plein air art, or photography. If we want to go to the state park____. It will help me get out into the world!
I live in Southern Maine. I am the owner of Anisette Studios. My website is https://www.anisettestudios.com/ Here you can view and purchase Shibui, sign up for my newsletters, blog, and read articles about Shibui Found Image Art. Patrons get great deals several times a year and special items at times. My site makes it easy to contact me. My primary art form is Shibui Found Image Art. Shibui begins with action art and stems from the imagination. It is like seeing something in the clouds or solving a puzzle. Its creative process has its own rules and requires what I call reverse engineering due to a lack of an understructure and purely out of the imagination. In addition to those who patron me, my target groups are those who use art therapy. I will soon be teaching live. Contact me if you would like to learn live. I use Zoom. I request that although my art, other images, and what I write is now published by me here on WordPress; I do ask you do not to use my artwork, poetry, or the information about Shibui Found Image Art without my permission. I am quite available to make such requests. I wish to share the following: The existentialist philosopher Simone de Beauvoir wrote a book called The Ethics of Ambiguity. In it, she lays out a guiding ethic in response to the philosophy of existentialism. It might be somewhat familiar to you already. She writes, “To will oneself free is also to will others free. This will is not an abstract formula. It points out to each person concrete action to be achieved.”
Best wishes to all! Have good times and keep safe! Pejj
