Under the Influence

Some people become part of you the minute they cross your path. Then you hold their influence close even if they're miles away. Sue Brown is one of those people. She is a walking creativity engine with an exuberant view on life...and she works it! Sue is highly contagious and you catch what she has without hesitation. Swim in her duck weed pond with fish nibbles...kayak on Nockamixin...think up art ideas with kids and nature. What a remarkable friend who feeds both my art self and my laugh machine. Here's a pic from Sue's pine grove in Emmaus, PA with long time friend, Amy Johnstone. Our brain-storming and candid life-sharing conversations never last long enough. If you don't have a "Suma" in your life...find one! And cherish the gift.
