WIll You Draw a Ptero for Me Please?
I know you may not have drawn something since 6th grade art class. I know it is a bit frightening to draw something from your heart. But I promise, it will be fun. Take a sheet of paper out of your printer tray and find a pen (or a pencil or a crayon or a calligraphy brush or a can of spray paint or whatever you want) and create a little pterodactyl. Then send it to my email address (pterobones@gmail.com) and I will publish it in the January Ptero Heart gallery.:-) Yay!

The Ptero Concept
For the past few years I have been developing an idea. I will call it the Ptero Concept.It starts with my foundation in totem animals. Animals whose natural characteristics and mythologies I draw symbolically into myself to build my own strength of character. If you know me or have ever read any of my writing you’ve recognized the part in my heart played by the seahorse and the llama and the raccoon and the owl and the coyote and the shark and the otter and the bat and the snake and the longhorn cow...and of course, the pterodactyl.
My ptero totem is about my emotional body. It is about the dramatic rise and fall of the bare bones of feelings. Darkness against lightness. It is about suicide or art. It is about using creations that capture the image of the heart, and using them as the membranes for wings, for feathers, to soar—rather than plummeting to a tragic death too fast and unfulfilled.
I've decided to publish a journal about that which inspires me to soar. It will be about adventure, fascination, and the art that results from living life on this planet as vibrantly as can be mustered. Each month I will feature an artist whose work has inspired the pterodactyl in my heart.
I hope you will follow me on this adventure.
