Rae Of Light: Jet lag, carbonnade, and the North Sea
http://raeoflight.blogspot.com/2014/07/jet-lag-carbonnade-and-north-sea.html
Wednesday, July 09, 2014. Jet lag, carbonnade, and the North Sea. I pushed through the anxiety of preparation, to the determination of travel, to the exhaustion of looooong flights, to the sigh of relief of finally making it to Brussels. My long layover in Atlanta was made entertaining by people watching and enjoyng a flamboyant server say, "welcome to freshens! Every two minutes. It's funny what I find entertaining when I am sleep deprived. The flight was long and restless, but I finally made it at 8:30...

Rae Of Light: April 2014
http://raeoflight.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 16, 2014. Escape into the wild world. This is ticket buying week. My newest paycheck and lots of saved up money are nearly going to be blown in one fell swoop. I'm going to Europe. Again. That sounds so snooty, but I don't mean it in that way at all. I just can't believe it myself. Now that I'm researching, comparing prices, and figuring out specific dates is it only becoming more than a dream. This adventurous soul had been striving to be where it has been planted; to love, learn, and g...

Monday, July 23, 2012. Pardon my unacceptable excuses. I realize that I have majorly dropped the ball with the blogging thing. I have appreciated the people who have told me that they are waiting for more pictures and stories from Kayla's and my trip, because it makes me excited that people have read and care. In my free time in the last half of our time in Belgium I slept or just didn't have the umph to blog about everything, and the two weeks of travel were a whirlwind. So. This week we have been tryin...

The Difference Between Dreaming and Starting
http://goinswriter.com/starting/.
On Writing, Ideas, and Making a Difference. The Difference Between Dreaming and Starting. I spent last year focused on one word: DREAM. It had been years since I’d given myself permission to pursue my passion. Photo credit: Norlando Pobre (Creative Commons). As a result, I saw a lot of fruit, including the opportunity to publish a book (something I’ve wanted to do my whole life). But this year, I’m focusing on another word: START. About doing. Not dreaming. Starting. Why waste your time waiting? I’...

Rae Of Light: September 2012
http://raeoflight.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 09, 2012. One of my favorite things about August is that I get a little card in the mail for my birthday from Anthropologie. Call me ridiculous, but it's true. It's only 15% off, but with Anthro, I'll take what I can get. This year I purchased this nifty little journal:. Five years ago I was still living in Norman and my dad had started the process of applying for his job at Kirtland AFB. I could never have guessed what that would lead to and where I would be now! Check it out here.

Sunday, July 13, 2014. I knew coming here would be about so much more than just art; that through all of the challenges I face in re-learning what I have lost and just from being around so much wisdom, that I would grow in immense ways personally and spiritually. Chateau La Hulpe. 5 minutes from the house by car, so I will run there occasionally. There have been so many lessons already. As you are working on drawing, you have to really see what you are looking at. Sounds funny or simple, but it is true.

Wednesday, September 17, 2014. I had an awesome post a couple weeks ago, almost all the way written, complete with pictures and everything, and then it just vanished. I didn't have the heart to stay up and write it all over again. I haven't written as much as I had hoped. I've been busy doing, learning, and seeing so many things. The processing and sharing parts have always been the most difficult for me. But as I have been quite forced to slow down, it might be a good time for that. And I don't have.

Rae Of Light: March 2013
http://raeoflight.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 05, 2013. Goals(A late list of new year resolutions of sorts). I know I'm late, but here are some things I've been thinking about for this year. :). 1 Be all here- I am always trying to plan two steps ahead. But I am realizing that most of the soul-changing, heart-growing, hard-but-more-like-Jesus-making things in my life have been completely unexpected. I will try to live fully each day and trust Him with my future. So with my eyes working to fix themselves on Jesus, and my heart working ...

Rae Of Light: August 2014
http://raeoflight.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 24, 2014. Progress takes time (layer by layer by layer). There is a point in each drawing and each painting where it is no longer fun. I am looking, looking, erasing, fussing, and stressing. I want to be so much farther along than I am and get everything right the first time, but with watercolor painting and with life it is added to and improved layer by layer. I'm human. Gah. It's a good thing. The paintings I have been doing are on larger sheets of paper so to really see them as they sho...
