The first two photos are from Tuesday evening.

Inspiration is a two-way Street
When I began this blog two years ago, I included the tag line “inspiration comes from everywhere.” I have shared my inspiration and hope that my posts have occasionally inspired others.
Last September, I heard from a friend that his wife was interested in a photograph of mine. She asked for permission to create a painting based on it.
I was amazed by her talent when I looked at her website Danielle Hatherley and was honored at the prospect. Below is the incredible painting “Summer Glow – Boulder ”
Friday night, I was able to meet her and see the painting at a lovely art gallery near Golden, Colorado. Mirada Fine Art Gallery Inspiration is a two-way Street.
Volunteer Appreciation Week
In honor of Volunteer Appreciation Week, I was able to be part of a project at the Boulder Public Library’s MakerSpace. If you follow this blog, you saw a post recently featuring some of the incredibly creative artwork that has been made there.
On Monday, a group of 20 volunteers from around the city of Boulder were able to create a laser cut Field Book. Most of the others spend their time volunteering in the parks, open space, or trails and their designs reflected those interests. I am a tutor at the library and a writer, so my design honors my love of books and my debut, ALIANA REACHES FOR THE MOON, which is now available at the library! If you are a patron of your local library, you can request that it be at your library too and I will be forever grateful.

Waxing Crescent Moon
Following new moon
the waxing crescent moon hangs
in the western sky.
Clouds as Art
Sometimes the sky above the nearby peaks is so beautiful that you just have to stop and take it in.

Maker Made Exhibit
Boulder Public Library is the home to so many wonderful resources. The exhibit that I’ve been admiring for the past two months is on its way out. Here are a few highlights.
Both of these installations were created by Rozie Vajda who was kind enough to give me a demonstration as recorded in the video.
Snow on the Flat Irons
I took these photos at the beginning of the month when things in Boulder were snow covered, the sun was shining, and the reflections were blinding.
