wow! what a couple of months this has been! there is so much to say and it has been a long day and my brain is too smooshy to type anything that would make much sense at 1 am.
making lots of changes. new email address, soon, new blog name, same www address, new etsy shop name and address.
2 weeks ago we adopted a beautiful 3 week old orphaned baby boy. middle of the night feedings, smelling like formula....forgot how exhausting it was! i will post picks in the next day or so.
A bit about me........
I am the mom of 3, wife of 1, keeper of the dust bunnies and I am a self taught multi media artist.
Everyday images in my life inspire the art I create, which include art jewelry, collage art, decorative paint, altered books, atc's, 4x4's, art dolls, the list goes on and on.
I love getting my hands messy and working with polymer clay, paint, dying papers. Beads are a constant source of inspiration, and just holding a few can inspire the creation of wearable art.
I suffer from a terminal case of 'junk gene syndrome' and I love going for walks, estate and garage sale-ing and adopting those bits and pieces that no one else has even seemed to notice, seems to want, or that have been thoughtlessly discarded. I have on several occasions yelled 'stop!!!' while my supportive and patient husband has been driving down the road to dumpster dive and retrieve a treasure that was thrown out with yesterday's news. Found objects, anything vintage and time worn, or just down right old are works of art in themselves, adding these bits and pieces of history just make a piece of art that much more meaningful.
I am always looking to work with new materials, ideas, and to learn new techniques, not that my studio has room for any new equipment or supplies, but it has not stopped me so far.
I hope you come back and visit often to see what I am working on next, what new things in life we are experiencing.

the title says it all
at 5:24 this morning i woke up to something soft and fuzzy on my arm. thinking it was my hubby sweetly telling me good morning i opened my eyes and smiled and turned to tell him the same, of course i was confused as to why he was awake 12 minutes before the alarm was due to sound off.
suddenly i realize the hubs, he is still sawing logs, the cat is standing on me batting at my arm and making a strange sound.
next thing i know i am screaming and jumping straight up off the bed in record speed for any day, but this morning my body was not planning on moving with any speed at all due to aching muscles since the kids and i had started back up on our daily 3 mile hikes.
the soft and fuzzy i felt on my arm that woke me up was a mouse. a gift from moan-uh our cat.
this cat is devoted to me. i am lucky to have the honor of her love. rarely do i ever go to the bathroom by myself. on days when the kids are not home she goes where i go. patiently waiting for me to finish up whatever it is i am doing to give her a bit of attention. once i am up for the morning she quickly climbs onto my side of the bed and lays her head on my pillow.
moan-uh and i talk to each other quite often. i know exactly what each purr and meow means. every morning
