About me:
I am a painter, a wife, a mama, a Girl Scout leader, a tree hugger, a sunrise watcher, a music lover, a dancer, a storyteller, a storyreader, a homemaker and an explorer.
Who I'd like to meet: If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
a hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in! Come in!
~Shel Silverstein
Hey there Pretty Lady... Such a long time... Just thinking about you and saw your pretty elf and thought I would stop in. I have my pretty corn maiden you sent to me on my dresser looking at me at night time. Stop in and drop me a line my dear. Love Ya to death... Merry Christmas to you and your family. Wish we were near to spread some cheer together... Cindy of www.peacefulartjewelrydesignllc.com and www.theywhisperart.com
Just wanting to share my newly organized art works & let people know we're now offering print on demand for comics, zines and other short run booklets! I hope you enjoy Spring in good health & inspiration!
I love all of it, as usual, but your little Regency Jane Austen woman with the flowers is to DIE for! I have the painting of Jack with the Dragon on display in my classroom and it's one of the first writing prompts I use every year.
