And the circles they go round and round...
.... we can't return we can only look behind from where we came ( Joni Michel)
Yes , and another circle is coming up - the circle of the 2011 arts and crafts fairs.
Looking behind to remember the many fairs I worked together with my late love of my life and now am again visiting by myself; Sometimes camping out or visiting friends , grown children or just walking the trail alone.
The mystery of life is not to be understood , maybe accepted- but finding some peace in the changes that life presents to me is the ultimate goal. How to be centered in my choices and finding the colors of my trail within my heart.
This is also how I create my jewelry. Being still within me and tapping into this stillness finding the combination of colors and forms that will become the pieces I will present to you , my dear costumers and friends.
A meditation on form and color and life.
Stepping out once more after a winter of introspection please come and visit me .

2010 a new year with lots of challenges to address
Dear Friends and Customers !
Hello to everyone :)
The last year was the most difficult for me in my whole human experience. My friend and husband who walked on my side for over 23 years died suddenly of a heart attack. For the last 7 months I had to walk alone and learn lots of new trades in order to manage my changed life. What a crazy life this is. So much joy and so much pain. I know I should be grateful for the years we shared, and I am, but I am also grieving deeply and find it difficult to continue as before.
But a good friend of mine gave me the advise of not changing anything drastically for one whole year and I follow this wise advise.
So here I am ....making jewelry as before and it grounds me in this time of upheaval and loneliness.
Art is the language of the soul. And so I pour myself into my jewelry and my music trying to find some kind of sense in this life I have to live now.
I decided to continue with the Arts and Crafts life that we have lived together for so many years. But now alone.
Here are the dates of this years shows as I know them right now.
May 8 + 9 Olympia WA Wooden Boat Festival
May 15 + 16 University Destrict Arts Fair Seattle
May 28 till May 31 Folklife Arts and Music Festival Seattle Center
July 10+ 11 Langely Arts Festival
July 17 +18 Gig Harbor Arts Festival
July 31 Samish Island Summer Festival
August 6,7 + 8 Anacortes Arts Festival
August 14+15 Coupeville Arts Festival
My work can also be seen at the Bellingham Farmers Market. Please email for dates. earth_worth @ yahoo.com
As new dates come up I will post them here.
Please come and visit me on the fairs this summer .
Yours truly Beate Degen
