Day 371 Art Meditation, February 22, 2024

I am completely behind on my monthly plans beginning February 1st: one new writing piece, 1 new art series, photography art piece, paper sculpture, paper dress - all to go into an art video, plus new merch. But every day my heart-intuition speaks to me in new terrifying ways, and I apparently need to be able to have the time to listen, feel strength from it, move it over to my personal yes-bucket, and build up the courage to do it.  

Some of you have been following me long enough to remember a few years ago, on this All-lines-are-beautiful journey, I had an online store that only carried my photography prints. I was SO excited at the time to figure out that I could DO something with ALL the photos I took, which came from ALL the walks I took in the middle of the day on weekdays, while I was dealing with ALL the job rejections over the course of 10 years. 

When I set out to “follow my Heart” 10 years ago, I thought that meant having another normal (happy) design job, live in the city I love (SF), and be creative on the side. I had no idea that following your heart is the hardest thing to do, and it isn’t just 2 things.

Now I see that time I had as a gift. Now I take walks as much as I can, and I always take photos, and make art from it. Just not as fast as I would like.  I would never have done this if I had not had the last ten years of my life, or gotten the full time job I thought I wanted.

The key thing is making and doing what I CAN control and let go of the things I can’t control. I have a computer, I love being a graphic designer, so use it.

Now I have things in my store that come from my Heart. The more we are aware of our Heart-spaces, the more we can be aware of our ego-space. Awareness is the only tiny thing we need to shift into our hearts … MORE.

More recently, I discovered I can include my photography art as wrapping paper for my online store. AND - my first photography heart-themed DRESS. 

See store link here!… Which includes baked goods for my California people, ‘Lemon Goldies with Chocolate Hats’ and ‘Heart Cookies with Rosehip’.

Wholeheartedly, 

Anne
