It has been a magical summer for me. For over a month I’ve been on a private journey of my own, and have emerged happier and more creative than ever. As most of you know, I lost my much-loved husband and best friend last December. It was a terrible blow and completely unexpected.
From January through May of this year, my son and daughter-in-law learned all the ins and outs of The Magic Zoo. This is so I could take time off during part of June and July to focus on healing in a special spiritual retreat. I received so much help in so many ways over the past 5 weeks. Now I’m ready to dive back into The Magic Zoo (and life) with completely renewed joy.
But even while I was gone, I did some creating. In fact, I completed 5 brand new designs! You’ll see them appearing in the next few months.
So my friends, keep a look out in your email inbox. I’m thinking about doing something extra special in about a week. You may not want to miss it!
Thank you, as always for supporting The Magic Zoo. And I hope your summer has been a wonderful one as well. I would love to hear what you’ve been doing!
With love from your animal loving artist,
Merry
