Testing The Waters

                                              Photo Credit: DawnMarie Ferrara I was walking around my neighborhood and suddenly noticed the trees along the streets are sprouting buds and some flowers are even beginning to blossom. What a lovely indication that the cold, dormant season of Winter is coming to a close and Spring will soon be upon us. Photo Credit: DawnMarie Ferrara I've always found February to be an interesting month. We are all still basking in the afterglow of the Holiday Season and the promise of the New Year remains in the abstract - mostly because we haven't placed both feet firmly into 2013 yet. This is an ideal time of year to hit the RESET BUTTON.

(My new Painting) A week of rain has made LA look very technicolor - the smog layer is washed away and has left a FRESH and CLEAN LA for all of us to enjoy. Apparently you can see the snow capped mountains very clear - ahhhh - another reason to love living in LA - Don't get it twisted though - I am a NEW YORKER through and through - this just makes living here more BEARABLE. So - I'm off into the fresh clean air - to drop off membership dues to my NEW Theatre company (woo-hoo) the next chapter in the book of "DawnMarie" is being written - and I'm enjoying it - feel like I was living in a world where I knew what the next day had to offer - now...it's exciting and new...I'm feeling more alive than I have in years - and more creative. Will write more for my script tonight - above is a photo of a Painting I just completed. I Love that my creative juices are flowing.... what are you doing with your creative talents? xo
