True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Monday, July 31, 2006. Hello beautiful new house! We are in a nice new house today. we're housesitting for some friends of some friends. The place has a volleyball court in the back yard, along with a firepit (I love fires outside)!

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Friday, January 19, 2007. Here are some snow pics of me, Sarah, and Tadia. Here you can see a great example of Sarah's love for neon things. We took a lot of the photos through my pair of brown-tinted sunglasses, too, so they look kind of magical. Posted by Anna @ 2:40 PM. So I feel like I haven't blogged in a while. Hello Blog. Hello blog-readers. Sounds so simple and. DUH! Anyway, I think we've all lightened up and changed o...

http://annavandas.blogspot.com/2008/03/still-not-asleep.html
True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Thursday, March 06, 2008. Still awake, so here are a few pictures Dave took of me in Langley this year. I don't have many new pictures. because we really need to get a good digital camera. Everything's digital these days. It's convenient. But there's still something cool about these old SLR's from the 1970's and 80's. A magical quality to the film. Here's Dave, too. I had to take one of him. Posted by Anna @ 1:41 AM.

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Tuesday, May 20, 2008. Deep Thought of the Day. Standing at the kitchen sink the other day, flipping the switch and dazedly listening to the satisfying munching sound garbling up all the veggie scraps, I thought to myself:. Garburators remind me of the old days. the VERY OLD days, that is. when people had caged carnivores to toss anything to that they weren't pleased with. Posted by Anna @ 10:47 AM.

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Thursday, March 06, 2008. It's 1:18am. I'm awake. Yes, I do have to get up early for a physio appointment before dance tomorrow, and no, there's no deadline that I'm trying to make on some last-minute assignment. I am awake because of my friend that I visit now and again (and not too often), coffee. I also found it extremely productive. I think I choreographed half a dance, painted a whole painting, and cleaned the walls w...

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Tuesday, May 20, 2008. Good things come to those who wait. and sleep! I decided to elaborate this old proverb when I was thinking the other day how important sleep is. It was late at night, and I was starting to feel panicky about life: 'where is my life going? Will God really provide for us? Do any of my friends REALLy like me? Am I totally on the wrong path here? Posted by Anna @ 10:35 AM. To comment on the first paragraph.

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Thursday, September 18, 2008. Why do we have to give plural 'thanks'? Why not just one thank?

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Thursday, August 30, 2007. Haven't blogged in FOREVER! So I don't know. Sometimes I think I should go and play my guitar instead of sit here and write another blog, or instead of looking-in on my childhood friend's lives and what they're up to now. that's kind of wierd, anyway. The internet is a strange second-life. Anyhow, I am considering. very very seriously. shutting down this page forever. Posted by Anna @ 9:07 PM.

Anna's Brain: Why We Are Afraid Artists

True artists don't meet needs as much as create new cravings." -Leonard Sweet. Thursday, June 05, 2008. Why We Are Afraid Artists. I found this little article that I wrote through a conversation with Dave and our friend Sarah. I came across it and decided that it needed to be shared, in case any of you struggle with these things, too. We are afraid a lot of the time to pursue the gifts God has given us and the things we love to do, particularly in the arts. Why? The big picture tends to drown out the sim...
