Observations and stories of art, cars, life, and creative energy exchanges.
This is a truly special day for me, as I joyfully celebrate the remarkable milestone of reaching 800 posts on this website.
Throughout my online archived journey, I’ve shared my observations, personal reflections, and captivating stories that encompass not only my art (and others’ art) but also my love of cars, life experiences, unique encounters, and fascinating creative energy exchanges.
