I publish a new article here each week — reflections on this new stage of life, art, and the questions that come with slowing down on purpose.

I also send a weekly newsletter called "Albert the Artist," which lets you know when a new post is up, with a short excerpt and a link back here to read the rest — plus a few small extras to start your week off right.

Here's what's inside each week's newsletter:

• Something to read — my weekly post on life after a career

• Something to ponder — a thought or idea worth sitting with

• A journal prompt — to help you explore what's true for you

• A moment to breathe — a simple practice to close the week with intention

• An artist’s note - a quick look at my latest creative project
