I wrote 'I Believe', in 2003, while still going through psychotherapy... I was fragmented,

yet hopeful and idealistic.  I've expanded in my awareness from all that I've experienced through recent traumatic events

and through the divine transcendence of  'letting go' during the grief process

so I do feel the need to update this page (soon!)

My journey of darkness and light has been and is a magical one... and I'm so ecstatic and grateful!

I believe 

that when one views art that touches one's soul, 

there is an instant acceptance and recognition, 

not merely of the artist who created the work, 

but of the artist archetype living within the viewer. 



I believe

that art mirrors the viewer's own reality, and at the same time, 

his perspective is acknowledged and validated

in a synchronistic fusion of consciousness with another being—

a union of harmony is discovered 

as two seemingly separate worlds become one... 

Kindred. A mutual reception... 

The viewer is at one with the artist, as well as with his own artist archetype, 

but most importantly, the viewer has merged with the Love energy 

from which the art was created, 

from which All is created.



I believe

that the artist, consciously or unconsciously, creates the bridge to Oneness 

that fear always seeks to destroy. 



I believe 

that art, in her many forms, is the universal language of Love. 

It can remind us that all of earth’s inhabitants are part of a universal family 

despite the boundaries and borders man has charted his maps with… 



And I believe

that it is from the heart, that we can see with true vision

so that we may feel this vibrant energy 

whose ultimate message strives to be heard:

We are One.
