Yesterday I took a break from reality and spent a few hours in an online drawing session with Alison Cook Beatty Dance. As I drew Alison’s performance, the grief of the nation seemed to come through in her movements. Pain is pouring out on the streets of our cities, and healing seems so far away. […]

Last August my family and I spent a week in Grand Junction Colorado. I had never heard of the place, and though I had an idea of what Colorado would be like, Grand Junction did not fit what I had in mind. It is much more “Utah”, much more desert and what you may think […]
