Evolutionary cycles are similar to spirals; ever-expanding coils of progression. Each level of our cyclical path does not return us to the same point where we began, but loops us into the next phase of development. I like this image, and it mimics the spiral pattern found in living matter. The ever-expanding spiral of evolution […]
My relationship with meditation has been a lengthy affair. I’ve experimented with styles, read books about different methods, and listened to guided recordings. Recently I had a revelation that has (finally) made meditation part of my daily routine. When I look back at the intensely creative times of my life; when ideas, synchronicities and opportunities […]

The theory behind The Creator State is gaining credibility in the nonfiction realm with the recent discoveries in quantum physics. I’ll be writing more about that over the summer. My book explores a few […]
Let’s face it; if you are an artist, you are dedicated to a lifetime of learning. You’ll never reach a point where you know everything there is to know about your craft. A creative life demands a youthful curiosity, and an appreciation that art is a limitless adventure which we cannot complete in a lifetime. […]
