september 2010

I already knew the September cards before they were even drawn up. I think I saw sailboats in a dream and it went from there. What I found most interesting was how the palette turned up in my life when I was not even expecting it. The September cards are less about sailing on the sea and more about sailing through life. During August, when the September cards were concepted, I was moving through my days with grace and ease. I wanted to create cards that would reflect that and might remind me of that feeling when I needed it later (when I will no doubt feel less than "in the flow"). I hope the members can enjoy these cards as not just a celebration of the end of the Maine summer but also a reminder of the calm strength which is always within us waiting to be called upon in a moment of need.
