Dear Friends of Bluebird Fairies,
Fairies shelter behind the disco ball
hung in the portal to the kingdom of odd.
After sunset, they emerge lickety-split,
and all night they dance through the city,
their magenta wings flashing splendid
in the lights of streets, and traffic and stars.
This poem was written by my friend Mary Pratt. Today, it inspired the drawing of this fairy:
Yesterday, I was interviewed about my work with Bluebird Fairies. One of the questions was “How has my life changed as a result of creating this business 9 years ago?” I enjoyed allowing the answer to flow into my mind. First, I thought of all of the people who have come into my life through my fairies; like Mary and her wonderful poems!
And then I moved deeper to a place where I know that this drawing practice I’ve created that helps me process the dark things I experience by drawing demons and their antidotes and the fairy drawings that celebrates the paths that lead me to more light and positivity, has changed my whole way of being in the world
So, thank you all for being a part of this ongoing journey.
I hope you can move forward in your days finding what supports you in being you as you step into areas of newness that allow you to shift into even greater possibilities.
