So far, so good. No lashings or scarring. Good, patient dragon.

A Plethora of P's / #3: "Perseverance"
Have a dream? A goal? A path to follow? Go for it!  … one foot in front of the other, one task at a time (or several; which we all do, although I sometimes think multi-tasking is highly overrated!) And if you falter, know it’s not failure but a sidestep, just a lesson.
Stay positive. Stand firm. Pursue. Persist. Persevere. Saddle up and keep on keepin’ on!

Week 40: "52 Weeks of Peace"
“Stairways to Peace”
The path to peace is not often straight. Sometimes you have to climb around, zig and zag, twist and turn; maybe even go upside down for a while. But however you arrive, the door is welcoming… and patiently waiting to be opened.

Work in Progress
Here’s a glimpse of a work-in-progress. When the time is right (and client approved), the final piece will be unveiled ~ for now, I thought that in this digital world, some good old-fashioned pencil work might be refreshing. : Â )

An Old Piece Made New
Sometimes it’s just as rewarding to bring new life to something old as it is to create something entirely new – as both efforts work that magnificent tool called imagination.
Here’s a pencil drawing I did a few years back, made new with color.
