These breathtaking landscapes were inspired by Raymond Carver’s poem, Late Fragment. Just like his poem, our family meanderings are about finding new paths to the waterfalls. The joy is always in the journey, and the journey is always enough. Painters and poets are kindred spirits. A poem captures a moment or thought with words. A painting does the same thing with the language of color and mark making. These new works are visual poetry of my favorite travel vistas titled with more poetry fragments from favorite writers. When I find a poem that speaks truth to my story, I know I’ve found a kindred spirit. My hope is that these paintings will to the same for you. ~ Katie Podracky
The path to heaven doesn't lie down in flat miles
Cumberland Island Oaks
She does not work slowly, nor quickly, but like a river.
Tossing A Moment of Light In Every Direction
The untrimmable light of the world, the ocean's shine, the prayers that are made out of grass...
I am in love with the ordinary things of life. Fresh air. Acts of kindness. Old soul conversations. Watching things grow.
The light is everything.
There are so many stories, more beautiful than answers.

Sunset over the Marsh
This poem is about loving the world and everything in it: the self, the perpetual muscle, the passage in and out, the bristling swing of the sea.
Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled.
