Worship

"The worship of God is nowhere defined in scripture. That's because it's such a powerful outpouring of our hearts toward the Lord" and represents such love, gratitude and devotion that it cannot be put into words; nor can it be defined by a song, a shout, or silence. Jesus said, "True worshipers will worship the Father in SPIRIT and truth." (Jn. 4:23).

My lovely friend Ginger said that.

Velutinous


I brought home these feathery seed pods from a winter walk in the woods. They make me think if I blow on them and make a wish it will come true. I am continually amazed at the beauty all around.

Just A Note

Over the Holidays, I did a small art show with a few of my art friends. The "Angel Lidded Vessel", which I posted earlier, I decided not to put it in the show or sell. It was just extra special to me and I wanted to keep it.
Shortly after, a friend I hadn't seen in several years called and said their Father had died and did I have any type of urn they could buy, as the "store bought" versions weren't going to cut it.
Of course, the Angel Lidded Vessel was the 1st thing to come to mind. I did not sell it, but gave it as a gift, a gift back to the Universe of Life.
Looking back, I think The Holy Spirit had a hand in the making of that piece.
Somewhere it says, "Creativity is God's gift to us. Using our creativity is our gift back to God."
God, Thank You for the blessing to be a part of that.

Amaryllis




This amaryllis was forced into bloom in my kitchen window ~ with my little helper of course.
This stunning red flower has come to symbolize pride, determination and radiant beauty.

Quiet Beauty of Winter

In Loving Memory


In Loving Memory of my Father, Alfred Paul Milash, who died on January 21st 2008
My heart aches as I miss you dearly. I'll always love you.
When some time passes and the pain subsides, I will be able to talk about you.
Your Loving Daughter,
Katrinka

Remember Your Roots

Camouflage


She lays utterly still
afraid to move
blending into the camouflage
hoping for safety

Fall Walk ~ Lake Jacomo


This same trail I have walked so many times before goes about 8 miles thru the woods. Yesterday, when I took the boys out, I followed a deer path and discovered this beautiful pond. I had no idea all these years it was even there. I was delighted. I can't wait to go back.

It is true we can seldom help
those closest to us.

Either we don't know what part
of ourselves to give...

or more often than not,
the part we have to give...

is not wanted.

And so it is those we live with
and should know who elude us...

but we can still love them.

We can love completely...

without complete understanding.

Moose Mug




I did a series of mugs with moose, horses and bears. I LOVE moose.
They have relief, dimensional carvings.
This shows both sides.

Chip n Dip Set


I'm extremely happy how this turned out.

Angel Lidded Vessel




I ended up using a matte white glaze.
I'm happy with her. She holds prayers in her hands, then offers them up.
