About Me

I am a 45 year old mother of three now grown children.  (sigh)

I am currently unemployed and have enjoyed the time I've recently had to practice my artwork.  I am also very lucky to have a wonderful boyfriend that helps support me financially, emotionally and creatively.

I have always been told, "You're so talented."  Don't get me wrong it's a wonderful compliment.  Without sounding like a snob or conceited I have tried and succeeded at many different crafts including knitting, crocheting, quilting, sewing, floral arrangement, scrapbooking, graphic design, sketching, card making, cross stitching, etc.  I have taught myself from books or looking online and pick things up extremely fast (get that from my father supposedly).  However, the bad part is, I can't seem to focus on one particular thing.  I'm not sure if it's a form of ADD or OCD but I'll get really focused on one medium for a few weeks, then get bored with it and move on something else.  Doesn't seem like a bad problem to have except that I would really love to be able to use one as a form of extra income but it's hard to do that when you lose interest after a month or so.  lol.

I'm currently into the sketching, water colors, oils and colored pencil sketches and hope that maybe I have found the one medium that I can focus all my attention on and eventually begin to sell.  Only time will tell!
