More about me

Hobbies:  Art ... Any Media ... Making, Viewing, Sharing and Teaching Children.   Appreciate the beauty in nature and other people.  Appreciate my husband's love and support.  Am proud of my children and their accomplishments.    Appreciate my reasonably good health.  Hope to learn from all of the other "eons" members regarding their hopes and dreams, life experiences and anything that brings a smile.

 

Activities
My passion evolves around the world of art. I love viewing, creating and sharing all aspects thereof. Fortunately, my spouse shares my interest although he didn't before meeting me. He's my biggest supporter. I am both a student and teacher of art in the most commonly known medias ... acrylic, ink, oil, pencil and watercolor. When I was a child, I used newspaper ads as my coloring books. All I asked of Santa when I was five years old was "A tablet." My mother saved the letter and I still have it. I used the tablet for drawing. (Evidently, mother was generous enough with pencils but not paper. :) )

I do not define myself by how many roadblocks have appeared in my path. I define myself by the courage I’ve found to forge new roads. I do not define myself by how many disappointments I’ve faced. I define myself by the forgiveness and the faith I have found to begin again. I do not define myself by how long a relationship lasted. I define myself by how much I have loved, and been willing to love again. I do not define myself by how many times I have been knocked down. I define myself by how many times I have struggled to my feet. I am not my pain. I am not my past. I am that which has emerged from the fire. ~Unknown
