Sharing artwork I’ve recently completed that makes me happy.  I had lots of fun creating these.  They’re just fun paintings.  The process for me is what makes it fun.  Then, every time I look at one, I remember the feeling I had making it.  It’s such a great time getting lost in creating!  Like the one says, “Let go and be free...”. Both of these started as blank white canvases.
I drew an umbrella onto paper, cut it out and taped it onto the canvas, then painted around it with black.  I let that dry then had fun with puffy paint!  I outlined, filled in, and wrote the saying all in puffy paints.  I hadn’t used puffy paints in years so it brought back some memories!  Mainly making T-shirt’s in Jr.High!  K like how this turned out.  I love the black background to make the shiny puffy paint pop!
For the other work of Art, I used a tacky spray adhesive, and sprinkled sand all over the canvas, and coated that with clear gloss sealer.  Then I used about 6 different shades of blues, greens, and purples, along with black and white, to create my floating landscape abstract expression.  I love the texture and I just stare at it for a while sometimes, lost in the wild blue yonder!
Enjoy... until next time!

Hey there, I’m back just sharing some stuff from life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  It’s been a while but I’m missing this creative outlet.

So today I’m sharing a poem I wrote.  Most people who know me don’t really know that I wrote poems.  I mean, I don’t go around speaking in poems or anything and after I write them, they’re just hidden away in a cabinet or filed away on the notes of my phone.  I come from a long line of poem writers- well, at least I know my Meme (my mom’s mom), and my dad, wrote poems.  I am guessing they’re not the first ones from either side of my family to write poems, but they’re the 2 I know of.  

I have a few of theirs.  Meme has a journal of her poems, and my dad has papers here and there and letters with poems.  It’s in my blood.

So I thought why not share them.  Some are serious, some are funny, some are just random thoughts.  Enjoy!

You’re as slow as Christmas 

And I don’t know why 

I keep believing you’ll change

You build me up, you let me down, you keep spinning round and round.

You’re as fast as lightening and I love you so.  

You move and groove to and fro.

You beat the rush, 

you are too much

You get me giddy as little kitty.

You’re on again off again never stable.  

I love, I hate, I crave the label.  

you give you get, you’re a taker, you’re fatal.

You’re a wealth of knowledge though dumb as rocks.

How hard can it be to find the Grinch socks!?

I give you up, you suck me back in.  

I’ve wasted an hour and then

Aahh Haaa- you have the power  again.  

Or fake it till you make...

me give in.

You found em! click! “One-click-buy” is my jam.

Until after December and this holy season with the fam!

I’m stuck with you as my only option, please internet speed up and get me what I need.

If only you were never born we’d all have less greed. 

Yes indeed.
