Who am I? I am a person in process. A believer in possibilities and the freedom to choose life in all it’s ways/forms etc. A believer in life as art and art as life and life in relation to art and art in relation to life. The things I post on this blog will be a conglomeration of things that catch my fancy or things I’d like to share because for some reason they compel me. Sometimes I will write a note, a poem, or some words to expand on these images. Sometimes I may share readings that inform me and bolster me, or move me. I will often share my artwork in process, in various stages of becoming.
My main passion in life is integration and synthesis in hopes of connection and relation with myself and others. I hold several hats so to speak. I am an artist and a relational therapist. I am a mother and a step mother-a wife and an ex-wife. I am a friend to some and a lover of life in general.

Hello Holly! I’m nominating you and your lovely blog for the Liebster award: http://searchingtosee.com/2012/07/10/spreading-the-love/ Thank you! Emilyx
Wow, thank you Emily. That’s a high compliment. I appreciate the nomination:)
Hi,
I came to thank you for visiting Lantern Post and I found I really like what I found here -:))!
Cheers!

I’ve been enjoying your blog and think I will add it to the sidebar on my blog under “Art and Culture.” I’m writing on “Living on the Edge of the Wild” which really is about exploring life creatively, in the moment, fully aware, as we travel or hunker down at home, or give voice to our own creative urges. So I really appreciate and enjoy seeing how other creative people express their vision. Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Deborah,
That would be fantastic:) I’ve been on vacation and haven’t had time to focus or read or post, but I look forward to reading more about your vision.
Have a good day,
Holly
My love: I realize that your time and energies are limited, but I want you to know that I hang on every word all the same. I love you and am thankful for everything you offer up into the world. Thank you.

wow you have worked hard on your art work, collaboration with your husband, which makes really creative results, and your sales pages. Congratulations! I look to find the size of each piece. It is interesting to read your description of your pieces. a good selling point I imagine.

Thank, Carla. I’ve put these things together over time. I appreciate the encouragement, although I haven’t sold anything online. It seems that people need to see the work and I haven’t invested in good photography. I have a question for you. I went and looked at your site and really love your work. I mean it. Your creativity is amazing and inspiring to me. I get the sense that you “live” in a place of creativity and that is something I really admire. I noticed that you have formal academic training in art. I’m thinking about pursuing a more formal course of study as I am primarily self taught. My thought is that I could benefit from other’s eyes and some direction. What are your thoughts about academia. If you want to respond feel free to email me at ekphrastix@gmail.com. Thanks!-Holly
Hi Holly,
Thanks for following Writing Between the Lines. I really enjoyed your “about” page, and look forward to following you as well.

Dear Deborah,
Thank you so much for nominating me. I’m sorry it’s taken me a few days to respond. Things have been crazy busy here with the holiday’s and an artist’s reception tonight. I’ll be in touch. It is a lovely honor to receive. Thanks@ -Holly
I love you honey – don’t allow this to be a burden – but I’ve awarded you again – you being the most inspiring person in my world. I love you!

Thank you for including me and recognizing me in this way. I appreciate your constant encouragement and love. Your work, though, truly captivates, and moves one beyond what they were before engaging with it. I love you too.
Holly, I have a STAR for you…
