Weaving sunshine attractions on soundless sleep erosion. Cradling the shadows and splitting the shields… a shift in slow motion. So hungry for where Why won’t yield. Sleeping full moon attractions All around us deep oceans awakening the unknown and tripping in the fields… adrift in the low sun running free for where Why won’t yield. I wrote “Yield” last year with this accompanying photo (click here). As a writing exercise, I wrote a second stanza to this poem to […]

Every day is love day… This self -portrait series is called “Hiding from Hallmark.” Valentine’s Day…. For me, the culture of consumerism that takes over on Valentine’s Day- a day set aside to celebrate love with “things,”really makes no sense to me. Love has no foundation in things. Appreciation and gratitude doesn’t come in the form of a $6 paper card or a box of candy. These thoughts were circling around in my mind several days ago—and converged with an […]
Eyes open Eyes closed The water becomes sky Not a place to fall but a place to fly in the warm stars of the night sky.

About the artist: Natalie is 65% Swedish, 45% German, 35% English, 1% Cherokee, 400% Goofball, 400% Rebel. Most days she is too tall to wear pants. She is best known for her solid math skills, bad handwriting, and reliable sarcasm.
These photos were inspired by a new self-portrait community I have been lucky enough to be a part of, called “Ring of Fire.” I am still pinching myself that I was asked to join these incredible artists, and that I get to actively communicate with them–sharing ideas and inspirations. These amazing souls have already brought me far outside of my shell, and I am so grateful for that! We haven’t officially started our Instagram loop yet, but it is coming […]
