The Gift of Friends

Friends feed each other's spirits and dreams and hopes; they feed each other with the things a soul needs to live. - Glen Harrington-HallAlthough I love having time alone in the studio to work through my creative process and recharge my batteries, I truly value friends. I believe that with the right people in my life it broadens horizons and enriches one's self. Yesterday I travelled down to the Starbucks in Newburyport to meet Gina, one of my newest friends, who is just an incredibly talented mixed media artist. She has a beautiful body of work on exhibit that just fills the Starbucks with wonderful color. I love that she is so open to share what inspires her, that she is willing to take a chance and experience new adventures, and that she really has a passion to create. During our coffee date we talked non stop for almost two hours. I am so grateful that our paths crossed and we are developing this friendship that is nourishing my creative soul, thank you Gina.

Aww...Caryn. Thank you as well. What a beautiful intro quote and what a lovely image. It's perfect. When did you create it?

p.s. I wanted to tell you that I have two 10"x10" canvases so don't worry about getting one.
