Reconnecting from Out West

On our journey through the Southwest, gems and rocks are constant companions, and the immersion in mountainous splendor is a balm. Rocks do change, but not much in our lifetime, so I appreciate their stability during these times of uncertainty and upheaval.

Similarly my rock-steady, loyal clients who continue to contact me for special projects and recommend me to new clients, have kept my creative spark burning through my travels. I have several custom projects in progress and have refurbished old pieces during this trip.

It has been a wonderful three months on the road and I look forward to being back home in Ithaca towards the end of March.

May the creative networks we build sustain us,
