Everybody around me seems to constantly be going, going, going. Looking at their phones. Talking non-stop with no pauses or thoughtful reflection. Working on and off the clock.

Just for fun, here’s some fun art projects I’ve been working on. No reason other than the act of creation. Hope you enjoy…. 5-minute pencil sketch exercise tara caribou | ©2020 How about you? Are you creating art?
Hey friends. How are you? I haven’t forgotten about you… I really haven’t. But what I HAVE been doing is fishing and other Alaskan subsistence things. In lieu of actually writing… I hope you’ll accept some photos as penance for my lack of reading all your fine works. I’ll be back into the swing of […]
