I’m going to assume that if you read Part I and have continued here, that you find this topic/situation of interest. And I’m going to assume that I don’t need to specifically reference statements made in this 29-minute video precisely–I’m going to assume that you...

Eileen Slifer

I am a visual artist who works in a variety of mediums - producing fine art, illustration and design commissions/products for clients. I have been creating since childhood and sharing my giftings for hire since 1989. I also love to write and have been expressing in this way for a number of years in private poems, stories and journals that have been shared with treasured friends or publicly. Thank you for visiting my blog. I value the time and interest you spend on my expressions, and I read every comment.
