Introduction | * * * * I've written and illustrated 2 books covering almost 20 years of an inner journey... My Blog, "A Little More From Sylvia Kay @ SylviaKay.ca" (sylviakayfootsteps.blogspot.com), was created to publicize my work while my web-site at www.sylviakay.ca was being renovated in 2010. Although the material I've left on this blog is still relevant and for the most part hasn't been included in the renovation; my web-site at www.sylviakay.ca is now THE PLACE to look for current information about my work, my books and art... * * |
Interests | * * Being Human - feeling all I feel as I live this life and working to understand its messages, I'm learning to feel and follow an inner sense of "rightness" & discovering what this has to teach, I'm learning to treasure each moment no matter how it feels -- using each one to grow & create me best I know how. * * |
