An S.O.S.: Calling Upon All Angels

Joy Matters*

*Passion & Compassion*

Seek out, seek in...always seeking, always on a journey to bridge the world within with the world around.

Knowing that so many are hurting and alone when there is no need.

If we could just pause long enough to turn the tide.

We are a force of nature because we are nature.

Even when the oil runs dry, the sun will still fuel us. All the panic takes us further away from our natural state, our connection to the creative force, and to the brilliant power of simply being alive.

Enjoy the ocean if you can and work toward it.

I aim to use my time to add to the creative rather than destructive forces vying for the Earth's resources.

I have found over a million Earth angels on the same mission: to create sustainable beauty out of life.

Let this be a prelude and not the exception.

I honor the lights of this great city as a power point for change, as the center of art, and as a vine of near-ripe revolutionaries.

Artists, women, good people of the Earth rising: rise some more.

*Revolution begins with personal evolution...

Bless & Be Blessed*

The first book I will complete after A Dairy of Many....

I have the privilege of photographing these wonderful women for a full-length book, which is a visual exploration of Hurricane Season. I will be joining them on their 56-city tour this coming summer. Be ready for the fire in your belly to be joined by the light, center stage. Activism is ablaze, my soul is ready, my eyes open, my heart honored.

I will also be getting some huge new prints ready to create a gallery show that follows and moves with the wisdom, the hidden messages in water. We need to purify, we need to respect this Earth. The time for change is now. The reasons are many, the meaning is overabundant. I am ready.

I am blessed. I am alive with this possibility*
