Jan Heigh Abstract Art. Comments about what is happening in my studio, assorted topics and art influences. Monday, July 16, 2012. A quote for the day.

Ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs. Is people who have come alive.". Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts ( Atom ). Chic at 50 Plus.

http://djsstudio.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 8, 2011. Puzzle Pieces Fit Together. Why am I amazed when prayers are answered? PIECES OF THE PUZZLE. Several years ago, I had been asking God what I was supposed to do with my paintings.

And then, would I have to grovel to the gallery owners? I would love t...
