i want to start a movement.

because i want to start a movement and...
because this sentiment seems to resonate with folks i'm peeking out on the weekend to say it's available as a print here.

so very inspiring to know that a little message that came to me one day deeply is of any relief to you out there. it is validation of following little whispers of creativity and not blocking them for fearing...anything... because there is nothing wrong with you or me for having these ideas.

There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost. ~Martha Graham


ps-thanks to my husband hugh for hand modeling;) and holly for taking it further!
