I decided a couple of years ago that I would take my open water swimming to the next level by attempting to swim the English Channel. The training for such a feat took its toll on my studio time, but I have no regrets as I juggled my interests and successfully swam from England to France on August 8, 2019.
Swimming the English Channel is a big undertaking and I was keen to attempt such a swim as I needed to throw myself into a personal challenge. As a younger adult I had opportunities to test my physical capabilities, but in more recent years I’ve dedicated myself more to creative endeavors, so I began to feel compelled to push myself harder in the physical realm.
The water was as “bumpy” as promised - but I just kept swimming. There were moments I was thinking I was done before my feet landed on a beach in France, but I dug into my own well to persevere and accomplished my goal and thought of the cheering squad of dear people rooting for me - and I just kept swimming.
It is now time to return to the joy I find in creative endeavors. Photos from my travels inform my jewelry and I have many new images to inspire the next line of jewelry - please stay tuned as I hope to have new work online for the upcoming holiday season.
Just keep swimming. Just keep making. Just keep living.
Keep getting out there - doing what you love!
