With peacock feathers, glitter, yarn, tissue, and torn papers, I am a child again: creating using whatever I can find before me. This is a place where I can find peace. For me, I’d go as far as saying it’s prayer. The current political landscape has left fear in the backdrop of many minds. I don’t know about you, but I need a distraction from it all. My art lets me go places where I can forget and clear my mind. Creating art, and reflecting on it, creates a place where I can find peace on my journey. What do you do that helps you find peace? If you don’t have a place like this, Journey on Canvas can help you find one. Or, perhaps, you’d like to share with others so they can find peace in the place you find yours? Journey and share here at Journey on Canvas Blog. We’d like to learn and hear from you.

Tears for Dancing, Age 42
The older I get the less I think about what I can get out of this life. Bad things happen here on Earth and no one is immune. I see my parents suffering, I watch terrible things happen to my friends and I see catastrophic events that create hell on Earth. Revelation 21:4 promises that someday God will wipe every tear from our eyes and the old order of things will pass away. I’m beginning to think that this promise isn’t so far away: it’s just waiting for us at the next stop. Maybe when we die we trade our tears for dancing and enter Heaven. Until then, I'm going to paint, I'm going to write, and I'm going to share when I find hope in this life. That's why I'm here at Journey on Canvas.
