I was surprised at how rapidly I was able to accomplish the harp this year. It only took one entire redo early on. I heard some discussions of a wish for an advanced class for 2013.

I really like your posts, especially the ones on tarot. We have that in common as well as an interest in mythology and fairy tales. I have just discovered the idea of pagan humanism and am excited to see a few blogs like this out there, even if there are not very many.

Comment on Creating art and being human by Sascha Zamani

For me, I find that art is an expression of spirituality, an extension of self. And, in that sense, we are all artists. What we create is art if it is created to fulfill an expression that we feel is necessary. Art need not be for anyone else but yourself. Granted, I believe that most people want others to connect with their art and appreciate it. The concept of “real” artist is foreign to me – anyone who creates something of meaning to themselves or others is an artist no matter the medium. I think sometimes when people are paid to produce art it can limit creativity as it sometimes puts artificial deadlines on the artist and for me, sometimes there are times when I can’t work on certain projects because the feel is just wrong or my focus is just drawn to a different project.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and your aunt’s beautiful book. If she still needs affirmation, you should remind her that the people that were running the exhibition obviously thought her piece had a lot to offer as they displayed it

William, your book is beautiful and so is your purpose for engaging in art. Keep creating!

Comment on My life among the Druids…well one weekend by B. T. Newberg

Hi William. *Ghosti has always stood out to me too. As a member of ADF, I’ve found their work on reciprocity, encapsulated in the *ghosti principle which they’ve reconstructed, to be one of the most profound and worthwhile contributions they are currently making to Paganism. I hope that it spreads beyond ADF and gets picked up as a generally-known concept.

Nicely done. I love how you really broke down the reasons for social media. I am always impressed with how you are able to immerse yourself in something and then explain it like it is the most simple thing in the world.

I honestly can’t imagine what my life would be like without William. Nor do I want to.
