Saying Goodbye to Mabel

Haunted wouldn’t be a term I would use. I don’t think when one loved as much as Mabel did, when one believed in things greater than herself and was committed to creating something beautiful, something better, for those of us coming along behind, those people don’t haunt.

Heading to Mabel’s

I just discovered there’s a lunar eclipse tomorrow morning (and a full moon which I already knew about of course), while I’m snug, high up in the sky, in my glass-walled nest. This just can’t be a coincidence, can it?

First Frost

There was something extra special about the market yesterday. Companionably cold and crisp, everyone was bundled up against this new nip in the air.

The Trading Post Cafe, Taos, NM for the Holidays

The other day Anna and I decided we just had to get away, so we headed to our favorite restaurant in Taos, The Trading Post Cafe and of course it was spectacular.

New Mexico Sunrise

As the house settled into itself, bathed in light and peace–I realized it was exactly the kind of morning I’d envisioned for myself all those years ago when I “left it all behind.” The kind of morning I wish for all of us.

New NEIGH-bors 2

So I was just starting to get to know my new neighbors when three more new-comers came along. They took up residence in the pasture just to the east of my land.

First Snow, First Fire, First Post

This is the first post I’ve published entirely on my own! I’m tasting the power and playing with this new-found ability to publish in real time. I want to start using the blog more as I’ve been using the facebook page.

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.
