About

I live to celebrate through music and art, & couldn’t do it without Muses.  A hundred ways a day, Muses hover & course through all of us, all the time.  

The historic Greeks told us that Muse’s need humans to manifest art and lyric beauty- in all its forms.  We all know that inspiration is everywhere;  but what is it that  lights that spark within and takes us into new spaces to create what we never imagined or set out to do? 

I believe it to be pure Energy & well beyond me; truly transcendent.  I call it Muses.  Some call it divine.  I just know it transcends all that I bring to the table and moves me into new territory almost every time.  I think Muses are spirits of inspiration; the air of dreams that move us, and move through us.  And we are the matter of lungs to breathe them in, with hearts and hands to get things done.

I write poetry; music and lyrics, sing & perform; make jewelery; take pictures.  There are never hours enough…

I post here about the Muses that visit, what they say when passing through and how I get them to linger just-a-bit-longer to help me finish a poem, a chorus, a lyric, a lariat…

My main work is  music~ 3 bands (Tortilla Western, Latin Torch, jazzy blues).  I would die if I couldn’t write and play music thru voice, playing bass guitar, accordion, ukulele, & percussion/drums. Visit my music website for music and  news.

My second passion is jewelry.  What started as a way to make gifts for friends has grown into an addiction to create jewelry from the heart.  Visit my creative corner on Etsy-  Three Muses Jewelry.

The Poetry Muses were the earliest Muses at my side, helping me write my first poem at 5 years old.  It is the poetry Muses who give me song lyrics
