“Art is either plagiarism or revolution”

All artists build on the past to some extent. Artists today need to think about whether they’re contributing something fresh or just echoing what’s already been done.

The Story Behind Braenstorm

After three decades with the U.S. Postal Service, I shifted into a life rooted in creativity and connection with the natural world. Braenstorm grew from my love of artistic expression—through photography, writing, guided nature walks, and handmade creations. It’s a space where I share the beauty I find outdoors and invite others to slow down and see it too. From the Pacific Northwest and beyond, I’ve connected with people who find joy in art, nature, creative writing and the small, meaningful details that surround us every day.
