HELLO! Well, it's been a long time since I have updated my blog! Still here in Seattle, WA.
Lots of things have changed!!! Some good, some bad---but that's life, so just keep focused on the good!!!! Keep looking to a bright future.

I will have to get myself to use my blog more! It would be nice to look back on more entries.

Not much to say today! Very slow week! Glad it's Friday....hopefully find something fun to do this weekend.

Finally did some art this week!!!! Drawing some different things...little different style. Will have to post some work! Nice to get back to some art. It's been a really really long time!

Hey, I'm back!

2008-01-02T16:55:00.000-05:00

Well, hello there! I haven't updated my blog since March 2007.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! I'm looking forward to a great 2008!

I had an eventful 2007. I had two art festivals this summer. Thanks to all that visited me at The People's Choice Arts Festival in Boalsburg, PA and The Bellefonte Arts and Crafts Festival this year!!! It was great to see so many familiar faces and lots of new ones too.

To the familiar faces:
Thanks for coming to see my new work every year! Your wonderful comments are greatly appreciated. I hope to keep in touch with all of you. Please keep coming back to my website to see new work. If you have time, throw me a line....it would be great to hear from you!

Then some big news.......

I have moved to the West coast! I am now living in Washington. What a big change!!!!!! It was totally worth it. I am living with the love of my life. He is the best thing since sliced bread! hahahahaha But seriously, we are both unbelievably happy. I never new that life could be this good! I feel so lucky to have met him! I miss my family terribly, but I had to follow my heart.

Washington is beautiful! It has a great art scene here.I am surrounded by great, inspiring scenery. We live across the street from the Puget Sound. I get to walk to the beach every day! How great is that???? The Puget Sound is framed by the snow capped Olympic Mountains. BEAUTIFUL!

Now it is finally back to work for myself. I moved here in October, then the holidays came, so I haven't had a chance to really sit down and work. I really can't wait to get back my desk and blast the music. I have so many ideas in my head that I have to get out. So, look out for new work!

Tearin' It Up

2007-03-08T15:21:00.000-05:00

Music is a GREAT inspiration to me!!! I have music playing all the time. Can't you hear her tearin' it up on the guitar solo. This guitar player is smokin'!

Girlfriends

2007-03-08T15:02:00.000-05:00

The title of this painting says it all! It is inspired by my friendship with my best friend which I have known since we were in diapers.

It's the laughter, the tears and always knowing someone is going to be there.

Artist Statement

2007-03-08T14:50:00.000-05:00

If I bring one more smile, one more laugh or one more postive thought in this world, it will make me happy. I hope to achieve that every day. Even if I don't succeed with millions in my pockets, I will feel content with one more smile on someone's face.

The world is so full of terrible things happening every day. It's hard to get away from all of the negativity; fighting, stealing, killing hatred.........geeze, everyone deserves a smile or a big 'ole laugh more and more to get away from these things.

My art makes me happy whether I'm working on a new piece or I'm standing back to get a look at it. The colors I use should be inspirational to live by. The colors are bold, lively and standing confident for the entire world to see!!!

I think that all that matters in life is to be happy! We only have one life to live, so why not get out there and kick negativity in the butt.

Operetta

I named this abstract painting Operetta because it reminds me of a full figured, chesty opera singer.
