I recently started this blog, sort of as a whim. Then I decided to share some of my past with you. I have been an artist since birth. My Mom said I used to mix my food just to see what colors I could come up with. I was an art major in college, but just could not understand why I had to have all those math classes...lol. I cannot do math till this day. I have been a member of the Society of Decorative Painters for over 30 years. Time flies when you are having fun. I love to just sit and come up with new ideas. I am an avid journaler (is that a word?) I can go back and find all kinds of inspiration in my drawing journals. One of my favorite past times is to go JUNK shopping and repurpose an item. Everytime I bring home a new find, my husband (Galen) says, "Does Sanford and Sons, mean anything to you?" It is a good thing that he appreciates my creativity. Some of my favorite designers are Shara Reiner, Trudy Beard, JoSonja and Michelle Walton. Of course also, Bobbie Takashima, just because she is so creative.
Currently I am working on a new piece for the Decorative Painter and two pieces for the Decorative Arts Collection new publications. I have enclosed some of my favorite finds and artwork. Hope you enjoy. More later.
