Dog Coat Pattern Trial For My Rescue Dog Finn

Getting Finn’s custom-made coat is taking a little more effort than he’d bargained for.

So they are already back at the drawing table with the pattern, making the back one piece with front leg holes. And they’re changing the velcro closures.

Sunset + Super Moonrise in New Mexico

Saturday night I was outside at sunset expecting the Super Moon to rise over Truchas Peaks at any moment. My timing was off, though. It wouldn’t show itself for another forty minutes or so. I stayed outside as the sun was setting, waiting, because I wanted to be sure to get a picture of the Super Moon for you all.

The First Flooded Fields of Spring

When the mayordomo (the individual in a village that oversees use of the water) gives permission to do so, local farmers and ranchers open the gates that are holding the water back, allowing irrigation water to flood their fields. It is always such a beautiful sight! The water flows over their land, forming shallow lakes.

Rescued Baby Chipmunks

I was sitting at the Anna Karin Gallery the other day when I started hearing some rustling and chirping. There, under the propane heater, with his little head tucked tightly into the corner, was a tiny baby chipmunk.

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings

This poem speaks so beautifully of desire. Most of us in this blog community are living outside of bars, but not all of us are free. I hope we each find the courage within to open our hearts and our minds to the freedom that is ours, if only we will take it.

About Me

About High Road Artist IMG 9461 150x150I am Jeane George Weigel, a working artist living in the mountains of northern New Mexico, and I do not think you and I are so different.

Every single one of us longs to know what we ache for, to “follow our bliss” as Joseph Campbell famously put it. You may find yours as an artist, a writer, or a teacher. But I am convinced we all yearn to live what is in our hearts. Some of us spend a lifetime discovering what that is. Some never find it.

This blog is about a journey of self-discovery, yours and mine. I write about the experience of living an artist’s life and share musings and photos as this living experiment unfolds. It is my hope you’ll join in the conversation by writing to me about your lives and I dearly hope something, here, will inspire you.
