the snaps don’t show
in the sunshine today
my path home sparkled
chose to see it that way
i like that

…and so you don’t think i am completely off my rocker: “cement is primarily made up of calcium carbonite, some of which is in crystalline form and can reflect light. Smaller chunks regularly end up in cement. After being ground and heated these crystals are evenly dispersed, making the cement sparkle”.

heARTbeatgal’s contribution for To The Power of N
thirteen squares of beautiful paper
from my local vietnamese haberdashery
the artist, Joel Lambeth, is seeking thirteen identical bits of “something”
for inclusion in the artists’ materials of his collaborative collage project
how could i not collaborate?
they are en route to australia now, along with my good vibes

it may only be recently that i call myself artist first, after mother
more than three years now that i have been compelled to create
but it was always quietly present
i remember well the feeling painting this watercolour portrait of my mother
memory fails me, but this was a decade or so ago
it was the same deeply satisfying creative bliss i tap into regularly now
glimpses of what i now know will forever be with me
i thank the spirits for painting
