#Dreamer
Still A Dreamer Looking at myself, I still see the dreamer that I am. Those dreams have not faded away. They have become a part of myself, although they can twist, turn and grow. And change, definitely change. I think this will be a starting off place for a new series. This mixed media…

Watercolor Abstract #3
Exploration Of Watercolor & Ink I started playing around with watercolor and ink to make a background for some cross country race cards. The school colors are navy and gold, hence the blue and yellow you see above. What happens when you mix the two? Ha – green of course. Anyways, I was dabbling…

Straight from the sketch book: Finally put the finishing touches on this one. I don’t know why it took so long for me to decide on them. I kept playing around with different metal pieces and vintage buttons (from my grandmother). Lots of layers of paper and paint. Hopeful Soul. Mixed media (paper, ink,…

It’s Okay Not To Be Perfect
Here’s a saying that I have to remind myself about. It seems that I am striving to be perfect – whether it be making something, cooking something or just plain doing something. Got to make it better, got to make it perfect. And there are times when that is necessary, but it is not…
