| Introduction | THE DRAWINGS KIDS make for us are priceless and in rare cases escape refrigerator doors. My West Coast daughter was small when she first conjured up a painting of Penelope (Penny) Puddle and her sidekick umbrella as a gift to me, a writer who evolved the character. Penelope is an original creation that represents the youthful can-do spirit in us all. She loves the BC outdoors where she can travel from sandy beach to snowy mountaintop in a day. Penelope thrives in the rainy season when her imagination grows best. She is the inspiration for handcrafted greeting cards, a kid’s book called "With My Umbrella, I Can: The Magical Journey of Penelope Puddle" and online spaces where I participate in the broader universe of ideas. |
| Interests | MY INTERESTS are wide and tethered to the everyday wonders of a planet that is not merely a backdrop but our lifeline. With camera in hand and often an umbrella, I explore the creative spark and potential rippling throughout everything. My most active journal currently is at WITH MY UMBRELLA AND BEYOND: LOVE THE PLANET PRODUCTIONS. |
