Learning from owls...
This fellow has been sitting here, quietly for quite awhile.
This little fellow is a newcomer. Poor thing he certainly looks as lost as I felt when I was creating him. But he taught me several lessons.
The first lesson is to follow my heart - not my 'get this done' gene. The second one is that I need color and laughter and joy. Rather than trying to copy the subdued natural colors we see in 'real' creatures I hope to create a whole new subspecies representing the "Colorful Owl".
I thank each and everyone of you for regularly stopping by to visit. Hopefully my blog will come back to life in the next few months.
I have made lots of promises to myself in this posting. For 'healing' purposes, if nothing else, I shall endeavor to keep all of them.
