Early Morning Singer kachina

A new painting just finished on the garden closet door. This Hopi kachina is facing east to greet the morning. 

My time as a dancer has informed so much of my art and life.
Knowledge of body memory has been essential for me.

Several years ago I made a journey to visit a very special stupa in Questa, New Mexico. This particular stupa can be entered. It's a small but intense sacred space and once within you are surrounded by lapis blue walls decorated with Tibetan Goddesses. The stupa in Santa Fe is larger but similar and also filled with amazing artwork.  Living in these troubled times I believe it is vital to nurture our sacred path. Where have you taken your soul lately?
