Greetings I am older than some, as human and humane as most, and learning daily to appreciate what life brings and what it takes away. I was for much of my life an artist, a painter of landscape, light and beauty, here in the US and Europe. I have not stopped completely but do mostly other forms of creative work. I have a number of published poems and some children's literature published as well as research articles and Journal issues, concerning ecology, human society and science and community. I also work creating erotic art in digital forms including Manga, and illustrations and stories. Be well and enjoy each day, i try to.
