I was SO thrilled to have had the opportunity to sit down with Jim Harrison for lunch a few weeks ago!!
Jim Harrison is an established artist and writer that has more than 100 limited
edition reproductions to his name. His work captures an era that we all wish America would return to. He has a full bio on his website here: www.jimharrison.com. His work is absolutely beautiful so please take a few minutes to visit his website and his amazing work!
Jim's studio is just minutes from mine! Of course, much nicer than mine! :o) I was so delighted to have the opportunity share this day with him.
Our work soooo different, but our habits are NOT! During our visit, I learned that he, too, is a night owl! Sometimes working until 2-3 in the morning, Which is the time that I get my best work done. Words could never express my appreciation for him sharing his career experiences with me! Thanks so much for inviting me for lunch, Jim!
Until next time~Carmen b.
Slow Down and Enjoy the Journey in 2013!
I hope all of you had a wonderful New Year! I have so many things I want to get done this
year. As I have said before, I do not
make “resolutions”. I prefer to make
goals instead. Of course, I always want
my goals or dreams to happen instantly!
Unfortunately, I am an instant type and sometimes things cannot happen
fast enough for me!
In this fast paced world that we live in, we expect instant
results with everything! That includes our goals. Technology has forced us in the
direction of instant gratification. Of
course, I am NOT knocking technology…because I LOVE my gadgets and the instant
results that they provide for me!
I was reading a devotion that I enjoy…Jesus Calling by Sarah
Young. Today’s devotion really challenges me.
It said that “Much, much stress results from your wanting to make things
happen before their times have come.” It
also says…."Instead of dashing head-long toward your goal, let Me set the
pace." Wow! I have to say I woke up today with an
AGENDA...and I did not initially say....”God what is your agenda for me?” Thank you God for slowing me back down and
bringing my focus back to you!
I am sure you have set some goals for your New Year.
However, Let’s slow down and enjoy the
journey that has been set before us!
Wishing you a creative & successful New Year!
Until next time-Carmen b.
