Cultural relativity thus gleaned, has bred compassion and admiration in me, for the heights, depths and brilliance of the universal human spirit. I’ve sailed the Atlantic on both Queen Elizabeth and Queen Mary, visited new borders to the rhythm of a thousand trains, flown in old prop planes, jets and on my thumb, trusted buses, donkeys and horses; and ridden the rails on freight trains with the hoboes through deserts and forests and cities.
I live in the Pacifi c Northwest, a country of strong mountains, powerful seas and ancient forests.
I’m a musician, artist and mother, enlightened by my beloved children who have taught me to laugh all my laughter and cry all of my tears. My life in enriched with friends and dogs, cats and angels. Nowadays I do portrait art, landscape design, run my dogs, dance, cook and work on three upcoming manuscripts.
Still I long to re-visit Kashmir, Nepal, Venice, Istanbul… thousands of years of history accumulated wisdom; architecture of inexpressible beauty and symmetry, await within their ancient streets, our hushed voices and echoing footsteps.view less
