I knew I wanted to go to the Art Institute when I was in the 7th grade, so I guess its in my blood. I've worked as an artist for years.... off and on..... my longest break was when I worked at the Hairworks Salon doing acrylic nails... which is also an art in my book if you've seen some of the botched nails out there! I had my 2 children (Brady - 9, Olivia-6) while working part time at the salon. The hours were perfect and I worked with a wonderful group of people/friends. But once again, I was called back to the art field.
I currently am a designer for a local company which fuels my creative soul and keeps me constantly learning and growing as a computer designer. I'm very content there, but I need more!
I've decided to pursue my art in a way I've always thought about doing, but never had the guts... for different reasons. 1. I'm lacking in the confidence department, even though I'm told over and over again (esp. from my boyfriend) that I'm VERY talented. and 2. I never thought I'd have the time. I'm learning you find the time to do what you love, and where your passion lies. So this is my beginning.
I'm going to be creating different lines of artwork, from the angels I'm currently working on, to a more primitive look. I want some part of my art to touch everyone. Whether you like the country look, or a more bright, fun whimsy look, I'm hoping to create something that will make you say "OMG, I LOVE THAT"
I hope you'll check back often and see what I'm up too, and I'm sure the blog itself will be changing frequently as well, as I'm new to this and I'll be trying different layouts and adding my own design elements. :)
