I Am Enough

Calligraphy Art:

I am enough.

Media:

Ziller ink, walnut ink, watercolor ground, steel pointed pen on paper

Dimensions:

4 3/4″ x 6″

Creation Notes:

I spent most of my life feeling that I wasn’t enough. “Good enough” didn’t mean good enough, it meant “mediocre” in my world. Well, enough with that nonsense! Of course I am enough! Of course you are enough! Just by your being you make it so.

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes (Tall)

Media:

Ziller ink, walnut ink, steel pointed pen on paper

Dimensions:

3 11/16″ x 9 15/16″

While I encourage the skill of saying “no,” the whole reason behind that is so you can say “yes” to what really matters.

The Journey Is the Destination, But…

Calligraphy Art:

The journey is the destination, but without a destination there is no journey.

Media:

Walnut ink, Ziller ink, steel pointed pen on paper

Dimensions:

3 11/16″ x 5 1/8″

Creation Notes:

Yes, the destination will probably change. Unplanned side trips often make the most interesting stories. But you’d never have taken that memorable bus ride if you hadn’t been en route somewhere else in the first place. So what’s your destination?
