An adventurous spirit

As I was kayaking beside my uncle along the shoreline of Sylvan Lake on a recent trip to Alberta, he turned to me and said "sounds like you have an adventurous spirit." I wonder where I got that from? :)

As far back as I can remember, I've loved the water and anything that has to do with it. Snorkeling with sting rays?! Sign me up! Set sail for a summer of cruising?! I'm there! Despite my timid first few years of life, I've managed to follow the calling of the ocean air with little resistance. So I suppose it's no surprise that I've managed to accomplish quite a lot in life while pursuing my love of water (despite being a 'starving artist'). One of my fans even wrote to tell me that she could see my love of water in every one of my brush strokes.... talk about a compliment!

So keep living the dream! Following your heart — and following your artistic nature can have its challenges, but don't forget to look back and see how far you've come (and how far you will go) keep living with a hunger for adventure!
