Beauty in Nature

2009-05-22T06:33:00.000-07:00

Sometimes beauty is right infront of you... you just need to take the time to see it.

Wiser......

I think as long as we learn from our past experiences, they are never mistakes.

We live and we learn........

and then we move forward.

HMMMMMMMMMMM......

2009-02-02T11:46:00.000-08:00

Don't know what to think.............
is there space in the present from the past ??

Resting with nature

2009-01-12T07:32:00.000-08:00

I found this picture by accident. I fell in love with it ! In my eyes this is ART.

$$$$ on a political note - its not Art related its personal

2009-01-07T09:48:00.000-08:00

How many people do you know that fits this image ???

Greed, it's what has destroyed our economy and peoples lives. Ever notice its the people with $$$ that cant get enough of it ? They put it before family , friends and anything else. What a shallow life it must be ! It ruins families, friendships, mother earth - That is where the true riches are ! Wake up people ! you cant take the $$ when you go ! What do you want to be remembered for ?

What has provoked me to write this ????

1st the media and all the b.s. thats going on

2nd my only sibling - may Karma kick you in your greedy butt !

3rd an old friend ( I thought ). that persons first subject was about $$$ not our friendship. see what I mean, some people put $$ before anything else. I'm sadly disappointed. I dont need those personalities in my life.

I'm proud that I'm not like that

If you help others it helps your soul. Maybe thats why I dont have much $$$ but I'm still rich in life !

Love and Peace

Mermaid "In the Works"

2008-09-24T06:39:00.000-07:00

This is another painting that is in "the works". I still need to paint details and then add "Glow in the Dark" paint . I really need to get my butt In gear and finsh all the paintings that I have started.

Moose "in the works"

2008-09-22T09:34:00.001-07:00

This painting is 3 feet by 4 feet.
I wanted to show the progression of the painting because it will look very different when its done.
Right now its just the basic starting point.
I cant wait to finish it because I already see in my mind what it will look like when its done.

Hello

2008-08-12T11:07:00.000-07:00

This is another piece of Art that I did this year

It is part of my "Recycled" Series

It is painted on a cabinet door sample from a Kitchen Design Center that I work at.

The door is a style that is no longer offered so instead of throwing the door away I thought it would be a great idea to paint on it !

So now the picture looks like it's already framed !

2008-06-19T11:54:00.000-07:00

This is a Stone Mosaic that I did this past winter. There are over 4,500 pieces of stone in this 24" x 24" piece.

Just another Day .........

2008-06-19T11:49:00.000-07:00

Well its just another day.....
struggling with the idea of becoming a full time artist.
How did other people do it ????
any ideas out there ?????

It's me 1 year older now

2008-06-10T12:00:00.000-07:00

Just a quick note while at work......
gas..... I know everyone is feeling the prices
I'm here in Maine
Its hard enough to survive , everything is so expensive compared to the average income
Plus in most places there isnt public transportation then heating in the long winter months
fuel for plowing roads so they are passable in winter
Soon enough I feel a very large population of Maine residents wont be able to survive here
Its very unsettling........
Well, thats my thought out loud today

Monday Already ????

2008-05-19T07:39:00.000-07:00

Weekends go by sooo fast, working all week and then on weekends trying to play "catch up" on things I didnt have time to do during the week.

1st time for everything

2008-05-16T12:11:00.000-07:00

Well as they say there is a first time for everything and this is my first blog. I'm a full time designer and mom. My goal is to be a full time ARTIST someday. So I'm plugging along to my goal any spare moment I can get. So I will add stuff here and there and will eventually get more involved as I go. Thats my super quick thought of the day.
