My new work so far this week includes these three new compositions. I'm returning to a more impressionistic style in some of my work, as noted in Foliage in Bloom. The cool autumn air and the seasonal changes are so refreshing and inspiring to me. They renew my spirit and inspire hope and gratitude for all that is beautiful in this life.

Quote of the Day
"Mindfulness is the aware, balanced acceptance of the present experience. It isn't more complicated that that. It is opening to or receiving the present moment, pleasant or unpleasant, just as it is, without either clinging to it or rejecting it." --Sylvia Boorstein
