| Grateful, Acrylic on paper, by Karen Phillips |
Welcome to my blog! This is the first entry for the C4ward March Blogathon. We have been asked about the big "Why" behind the creative work that we do. My initial response was "I just have to." If I don't create, I get cranky and restless. Art is an integral part of my being.
After thinking about this question of Why for a bit longer, I wrote this poem to describe my process and how I move through this world.
Dancing with the big WHY
DearestI am grateful to be able to create art and to share it. What are you passionate about? and Why?
I hold you close and whisper in your ear

Together we travel through this existence on the road to discover what is
Love
Beloved we open our arms wide welcoming all
Experience
Let us witness together that breath of life that flows through our veins and just

Karen, this is a beautiful poem. I love that your Beloved Is whispering in your ear, and so understand the cranky and restless.
