I am beyond thrilled to announce that my husband and I have a big, new adventure ahead of us! We are going to be moving to the Big Island of Hawaii. I am so proud of my Alex for all of his perseverance and finally getting the job of his dreams. He will be working as a Wildlife Biologist with the University of Hawaii in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. I don't think it gets much better than that! This of course also means that I will have a whole new environment and culture surrounding me, to gain inspiration from. We went to to the island of Kauai on our honeymoon, but Hawaii is still largely a mystery to me. But with this mystery comes a little bit of magic. I have always been interested in stories of hot air balloon adventures and shipwrecks in tropical lands since I was a child. Although I know that Hawaii has much more civilization than many people are aware of, I look forward to getting away from Cincinnati and in my own small way, live an adventure in a land that is mysterious and magical to me. I'm interested to see how this affects my artwork...I have already gotten a little inspiration that you can see on my "Coming Soon" page. The collection is going to be called "Thrive". With the conservation work that my husband is participating in and his recent near death experience this fall, I have been contemplating what it means for the earth and its creatures to thrive... how do we as people thrive and how do we help nature to thrive? I hope to in some way touch on this with my artwork... but we'll see :) I'd love for you to follow along on this adventure and see the beauty that it brings!
