About the artist
I was raised by two wonderful artistic parents and grew up with two equally fantastic artistic
brothers. While none of them are quite 'nerds' and not quite 'hippies' this was an interesting
upbringing. There was never a time when someone in the house wasn't creating. I've certainly
learned the value of free time, extreme patience with life in general, and how to appreciate
beauty in all things. I've most recently been experimenting with various new art hobbies, in
between raising my own little bohemian children and supporting my military hubby. One of my
old standby favorites is beading, however, which I have been doing since 1992. I've dabbled in
drawing, practiced painting, tried a bit of tie-dyeing, pulped a bit of paper, explored Ukranian
egg dyeing, fooled around with photography, and noodled with numerous other arts. I have
won a few awards over the years, beginning with school competitions and most recently bead
contests and county fair competitions. I've also tried my hand with culinary arts, placing in
contests with recipes and baked goods. It isn't about the contests, however, I just like to see IF
I can do those things, and when I do, just how well my effort went. While that may seem like a
LOT of hobbies, that still doesn't keep me from spending most of my time with my kids and
family. They are my world. I've often given up my art funds to take the kids camping,
snowshoeing, or hiking. There's so much to life that's taken for granted, and I want to make the
most of mine. I'm still young yet, I'm sure there's a few other arts or activities I haven't gotten a
taste of. *grin*
