http://doodlingdragons.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 18, 2009. Trying to give back when you were given to. Sometimes. I have to draw it instead of say it. I tied this into my. Blog, but when I heard the sad news yesterday, I thought in pictures first. This song was one of the first recordings I remember listening to where I understood the words. It also was the fist song that made me want to create something so that I could re-work an ending to a story. Sunday, September 13, 2009. Thursday, September 10, 2009. A Special Day to PLAY! On th...

Musings about life as an artist by Jennifer Aikman-Smith of Dragon Dreams. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. Packing is SUCH a PAIN! It’s funny, but once I am on the plane then I seem to relax because I know that there’s nothing I can do but go with the flow and adapt. It is the running around before I leave, trying desperately to remember everything that I find much more challenging. Is it easier to leave the kids behind as they get older? Now my girls are both capable of getting themselves out the door in t...

Musings about life as an artist by Jennifer Aikman-Smith of Dragon Dreams. Wednesday, October 13, 2010. Back To MUSING Out Loud! A year ago, I hugged my father goodbye for what ended up being the last time. His huge frame that had seemed so strong and invincible to me as a child, felt so fragile in my arms that night. We’ve had almost a full year of feeling fragile as a family. It has been interesting to say the least. Now I realize that it’s not about how much you write or how often, it’s ju...Welcome B...

Every now and then, milestones happen in your life that cause you to radically change the way you think, act or look at the world. Our visit to Japan to watch 2010 become 2011 and the Year of the Rabbit begin was one of those moments. We welcomed in the new year at the temple closest to their house. We crossed at Shibuya. We visited Shinjuku and Senso-ji. My sister sent off...

Part of getting ready for Christmas has always been decorating a Gingerbread House together as a family. I’ve been buying the basic kits ever since the first disastrous year I began the tradition by trying to bake the house pieces from scratch. If anyone else, beside Martha Stewart. This year, we even found the foil covered cardboard at the Bulk Barn. Because we decorated the ho...

Musings about life as an artist by Jennifer Aikman-Smith of Dragon Dreams. Sunday, June 20, 2010. Father’s Day 2010. There are many men in our lives who play important roles as nurturers, role models, guides along our path in life, teachers, protectors, providers and comforters. If this is a day when we celebrate those attributes and those special people in our lives, it should also be a day where we choose to celebrate our own inner strengths as well.

Musings about life as an artist by Jennifer Aikman-Smith of Dragon Dreams. Wednesday, December 23, 2009. The past 3 weeks have been a blur of teaching then waiting then crying and traveling. Now at last I am home again with my family and trying to prepare for Christmas. I didn’t blog during this time because I just didn’t know how to write my goodbye to my father. Then I got to speak at his memorial service and wrote this:. My earliest memories of my father were of him singing Scarlet Ribbons. Dad found ...

I had Dragon Dreams stuff that needed to be done and just couldn’t wait any longer. Namely, uploading the new website and deleting all the old files from the server. But for now,just for a little while, I am going to sit back and enjoy the fact that the work is done. and wait to see what everyone thinks. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
