Mushroom Art — Image by kenne
On dead wood
color breaks open:
spores, brushstrokes, breath.
The forest practices
its oldest craft—reuse.

Female Phainopepla In Sabino Canyon — Photo-artistry by kenne
Whenever we need to make a very important decision it is best to trust our instincts, because reason usually tries to remove us from our dream, saying that the time is not yet right. Reason is afraid of defeat, but intuition enjoys life and its challenges.
— Paulo Coelho
Cold trail at night— even the stones remember how to endure.

Nets and Floaters On the Dock (Juneau, Alaska) — Image by kenne
Floaters on the Dock
Orange floaters knocking like monk’s bells in a tide-slow chant.
Nets coiled— a bright tangle of the year’s labor.
The net knows this—
every line holding
a memory of the deep.
A quiet holiness in stacked gear, boots drying, the diesel tang of the day.
I sit on an overturned bucket and breathe. Even here, the tide pulls a little.

Backlot props — Image by kenne
I wander the dusty backlot of Old Tucson where a broken wagon wheel leans against a wall the color of old adobe.
A sign reads Props, but really, who can tell?
Everything here looks equally retired— the wooden crates, the tin stars, the barrel with no bottom.
I stand there wondering if this is what happens to a life too: all our moments stored behind a door labeled with someone else’s handwriting.

Sandhill Cranes at Waterwater Drew — Image by kenne
The cranes croak and rattle in the dawn like rusty hinges on the world’s back door. I like their honesty— no pretense, no apology.
Just hunger, cold feet, long flight, and the ancient duty of returning. The desert approves. So do I.

Photo-artistry by kenne
There is a thin, vibrating line between breaking and becoming.
Every life presses against it. In the quiet, you can feel your own edges— the places where you diminish, the places where you bloom.
Fragility is the instrument, transformation the music, survival the performance no one applauds yet everyone enacts.

Raven In the Storm — Image by kenne
The raven grips the crooked limb as if the whole sky might slip away.
Clouds bruise the distance.
Wind tugs at every loose thing— except this raven, who has already made a pact with the storm.

Duende speaks without permission — Image by kenne
Duende can’t be rehearsed
it blooms suddenly—
dark, luminous, and real ,
flooding the room with soul.

Gila Woodpecker — Photo-artistry by kenne
Gila Woodpecker
comes in loud, like a drunk at noon, runs the little birds off, takes what isn’t his— sweet red from the humminbird glass.
I don’t blame him. world’s built that way— noise wins, beauty keeps its distance.
still, I raise my coffee, to the bastard.

Water Lily Painting by kenne
The scene feels almost meditative—
water lilies glowing
against the cool pond surface,
inviting you to linger a little longer.

Patio Nightlight — Image by kenne
A solar jar sits glowing on the patio,
quiet as a candle,
turning leftover daylight
into a soft evening companion.

Aging by kenne
A beard teaches patience: days become weeks, weeks become memory.
You learn what it means to grow slowly, and not mind the uneven parts.
Hands in Soil (2005) by kenne
Hands in soil, the old language returns— shared labor, shared laughter, the first vines trembling in their beds of earth.
This is how belonging begins: not in words, but in what we choose to plant together.
Smiling Sun On the Wall — Photo-artistry by kenne
At solstice, the shadow holds still, a perfect exposure. The wall remembers the sun not as warmth, but as form— enduring, exact, and silent.
