bringing this old blog back to life for my new website www.surfybirdy.com I was going to start a new blog but figured might as well bring these old posts along as it has all been apart of my art journey. sorry i took a break from blogging about it for a few years but my love for the sea took over i spend most days chasing waves and doing odd jobs to pay for my tiny home but i am working on a better balance now. so here we go. the older posts are mainly from when i was doing art as peace owl forest, i started out painting live at open grass festival in delray and from there did many hippie music festivals in florida, and worked at independent working artist network they became family and i created art and danced around there often. since i started i always mixed in some surf art but after a few years i got more hooked on surfing and started to just focus more on that and my serious case of wanderlust. i've had some great adventures over the years and have traveled some fun places. I will share more of that here now along with art happenings, travel trips, what inspires me and more.

"All Works of Love are works of Peace"- Mother Teresa Its time to celebrate! Today is a special day. In celebration of International Day of Peace and this being my 100th post I want to show you some inspiration to me and have a special giveaway for you. Since today is International Day of Peace I want to let you know why I love Peace. In the photo above I have some things that inspire peace to me. Things I treasure like the Peter Max Peace poster. In 2006 I got to meet Peter Max and he signed it for me. It was the best. He is an amazing artist and a huge inspiration to me. A photo of my family in 1985- my dad, mom, me and my twin sister in bonnets. I love how young and happy my parents look and how tiny we are. Some books that inspire me- The Book of Peace, The Giving Tree, and Peace- the Biography of the Symbol. They are all filled of lovely images and beautiful stories. Other things that makes Peace special to me are: the 60s/ 70s era, artists/ inspirational people like Jo

“And suddenly you just know…it’s time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.” -Meister Eckhart well here we are a new year again and i hardly posted in this blog space all year! sorry for that but i think this here may be my very last post here. not because I don't love you but it's time for a change. I am opening up a brand new site www.surfybirdy.com and I will do future blog posts there along w other fun stuff. this blog will remain here as it is a old friend that i will forever cherish. It has been there for me to write and share photos with you since the beginning when I first stepped out into the art world in 2009. great memories have been shared here. but thats all besides the point. i'm here to do a new years post. 2014 was a great year for me. i finally took a leap and started following my dreams more.
