Pennsylvania Dutch Hexmeister at large: Words of Wisdom September 16

About Me

Name: Jj Starwalker

Location: Corinth, ME, United States

Designer and artist Jj Starwalker, learned traditional "Pennsylvania Dutch" hex painting as a young girl from her grandmother. She followed many career paths through the years, only occasionally taking up the brush. When she did, however, she was always drawn to circular forms -- a counterpoint to the rectangular format of her work as the creative director of Vision IPD design studio in Beaufort, NC. In the last few years she has returned to the roots of her heritage, infusing the typical barn blessings with new insights and her signature use of metallic hues. She has exhibited work in many media, including early interpretations of the hex designs in batik at The Egg and The Eye -- now the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles, CA. Jj features her artwork on her art website www.DutchHexSign.com. For Internet and print design work, visit www.VisionIPD.com.

Words of Wisdom September 16

The harvest is upon us. “Katie, bar the door!” What you sow is what you reap? That is true no more…

The word of the day is caution.

..........................................................................................................

I have to comment on this, as I have NO IDEA what is up... I, personally do not feel anything that would indicate that one does not reap what they sow... but it came very decidedly and when I tried to turn from it -- as from wayward thoughts of mine that sometimes intrude on the reception of from the Gods, They would have none of it and I had to write these words.

I still maintain that one should sow the seeds of light and justice, of balance and healing...

The messenger is confused...
