"Journaling, I believe, is a practice that teaches us better than any other the elusive art of solitude — how to be present with our own selves, bear witness to our experience, and fully inhabit our inner lives."   - Maria Popova"May I recommend a workshop that will change your studio practice and life itself? Anne is an artist who communicates with drawing and HEART like no one I know." - Laura Nugent

A belated Happy New Year! I've been busy working on all the commission orders I received over the holidays - which is great, because it hasn't been the ideal weather for getting out and about. But when I can get out, I do, and then I take lots of photos. Sharing some favorites from the last few weeks...including spruced up ones, compliments of instagram...another fabulous new diversion, for me! You can follow me at: http://instagram.com/anneleuck

New Years Eve Day. I got my car stuck for a short while...thank goodness for all wheel drive!

The "silly beast" outside my kitchen window. Construction has since insued. Hoping I won't be left in the dark come spring!

I gifted myself some snow shoes, took the inaugural outing last week with my friend Laura.

Laura opted to use her cross country skis. it was great fun!

The ice formations formed from the "Polar Vortex" were phenomenal and breath taking!

This is where I spent most of my summer! No paddle boarding or kayaking today...

The sand and snow wind formations at the beach were delightful to see.

We finished the day with a few tobaggon runs down Cricket Hill. I had not done that since high school….wheee!
