Patience in the Beauty of Life's Unfolding

Jeane at 25

I have no idea if it’s still like this or whether you had the same experience, but back when I was in high school in the 60’s, by junior year, we were supposed to decide what we wanted to do for our careers, for the rest of our lives! I was 15 when that question […]

Loving Without Attachment

Child's Play

How many of you have thought about loving without attachment or what that even means? It’s a tricky concept to understand and live, I think, at least it’s been for me. To love without attachment means we open our hearts to another but we don’t control or possess them. It’s something I’ve been consciously trying […]

Comfort In Discomfort

Jeane in the sun

I am way, way, way, way out of my comfort zone. My life is changing. So much so it is impossible to control and that is the specific point the universe is making, it seems. I am being shown myself, my controlling self—the part of me that actually thinks I can contain life. Until recently […]

Child’s Play

Child's Play

Kelee and I went for our first walk since my mishap today. Yesterday the Orthopedist gave me permission to venture out on the Land Grant with a walking stick and some caution. What a revelation! I meandered it with the keen interest of the child, seeing every nook and cranny, every rock, berry, stick and […]

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.
