As a ten-year-old, I wanted more than anything to be able to draw…well.

I couldn't. I had a friend named Peter. He could draw SO well, I was jealous. I believed that no matter how hard I tried, I would never be able to draw as well as he could.

I am still fascinated by artists who can create beautiful images, from scratch. As a tv segment producer, I get to meet, interview and tell the stories of a lot of musicians and artists.

When I saw Amber Rahe's (pronounced Ray) artwork - I was floored. I wanted to learn about when she realized she was an artist and how she approaches her artwork today.

If you have 5 minutes - I invite you to spend it watching this piece, about her.

You may enjoy Amber's art as much as I do.
I'd love to hear your thoughts, in the comments!

If you have some time - could you email me at: [email protected] and let me know by what percentage your property taxes went up, (or down) last year? Thanks much for your time.
