creation there is collaboration. We do not create alone."

Abby’s Dream- A young dream adventurer possesses a magic locket given to her by her teenage sister, Lily, and ventures off to a wondrous dreamland! A magic wolf whisks the sisters away on a magical stargazing adventure exploring the sea and swinging in a mystical forest's trees.
They befriend flying dolphins, dance on water, and float in bubbles above the sea. Abby overcomes her fear of losing her sister to the stars when she listens to the music in the stars and sings the magic words! But the magic locket hadn’t finished its magic yet.
The sisters come to a magical carousel inside a beautiful nebula that came to life with dancing ballerinas, a wolf, a lion, a leopard, a bird, and a star creature. The sisters joined in the dance!
I AM is a work of art and poetry created by the author. This is a work of impressionistic
photography using mixed mediums to arrive at beautiful paintings.
The author says, “As I travel into my wild, untamed imagination, I discover that art finds me, and it meets me through a camera lens, a sketchbook, a paintbrush, and digital media.
I am moved by colors, whether digitized art, paint on canvas, or photography. I like using mixed mediums too. Colors sway my emotion. I move with the ebb and flow of the art piece I'm working with like it’s breathing...alive.
I work with a greater force than my existence and collaborate with that more significant force. This force, it's frightening, it’s exciting all at the same time. This greater force breathes its colors and energy into my work, and I express it visually, wanting to spark joy and wonder in the eyes of the beholder-you.”
