I so resonate with this. Art and creativity have been the anchor of my life, although I've never been a working artist. Last year I turned 80 and wrote my first poem. The poems are still pouring out. I echo the freedom and fullness that age can bring. Thanks you for the images, the words and the attitude!Eunicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13059404368709414354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2697765575906784716.post-40579777254270264072017-08-11T11:34:33.951-04:002017-08-11T11:34:33.951-04:00Fantastic Joanne, seeing all these wonderful artis...Fantastic Joanne, seeing all these wonderful artist here.

I'm a working artist who took a big chunk of time out of my painting practice to do this, so I'm getting a bit impatient with these questions. Also, all of you who loved this post, my blog can use your support in the form of a modest donation. Please support the people who support the ideas that are important to you.
