It’s been a whirlwind since the moment I rolled out of the little pocket of woods I had been tucked up in...(tucked up in with another mouse). As soon as I rolled into cell service, my phone was flooded with worried texts about wildfires. I knew of one nearby...
Ironically, being in the city slows me down with work and van upkeep more than the woods. Everything is so spread out, and getting around in a 23 foot long vehicle does not live up to my efficient style of travel. So even more ironically...
Learning how to make fire has been the most healing, empowering, and liberating lessons I’ve ever been taught.And in the words of Toni Morrison, “If you are free, you need to free somebody else.”And so, by making this video, I hope to pass it on to someone else...
Fire is the gift of life.Just as the sun is the gift of this planet.With fire, I will not freeze, I will not starve, and I will not die of thirst.It can be a weapon, and it can be a light in the dark.Fire burns the old and creates fertile ground forthe new - it sparks growth.Everything revolves around fire.And when you can make it...
Every now and then, when I’m scrambling to get out of town, printing labels, tying up bracelets, running around town looking for a post office, I stop and think about all this energy that I’ve created from nothing and everything. Being an artist means conducting matter from bits and pieces of life...
This month we’ve collected over $200 to donate to the @innocenceproject. Thanks to you guys, and working together to fight for change, I feel like my little voice might get out there a little farther than...
When you don’t have more than you need, it’s easier to feel a connection to everything that you have and appreciate its full value. I carry my water and wash my dishes, my hands, brush my teeth, and drink with my limited supply. Two gallons of water can get me through about a day and a half. I carry ten gallons to get me through my work week - which I’m sure I could get it down to less, if I really had to. I use...
When I practiced this miracle question on myself, I dreamt big. I said exactly this: My dream life. I would have a magic floating house...the house would be all windows and flowers and strings of lights. I would have a floating vessel of some sort. I’d never land...
There’s something different about being in the wilderness alone in Montana. You are alone. Alone with your thoughts. Alone with your fears. Alone with the wild. I’m not really sure what it is about being here that makes me a little bit crazy. But I kind of like it, like an addiction. At the same time, I think it makes me lose my mind, and like a drug, I have to...
Working in the Winds with a long thin thread and tiny beads is a challenge in itself...the thread likes to twirl and tangle between each stitch, the trays of beads want to fly and be free along with everything else in the wilderness, the dust tries to grab hold of anything and everything, especially open eyes, and the...
True freedom lies in self sufficiency. Free from money, ego, materials, acceptance, expectations, reliance on technology, wants over needs. I won’t pretend...
For the past three nights I’ve spent almost 100% of my days outside. Waking up with the wildlife, adjusting myself to the sun, the trees and their shadows, letting the dirt seep into my skin...it doesn’t take long to feel like part of the wilderness. The little creatures start to treat you...
