So I was straightening up my basement which doubles as my art studio. I know I should really be wrapping. I started taking painting classes several years ago, 7 to be exact. Loved the friendships I made with women who had the same interest as me. I had recently been divorced and I was fortunate to continue to stay home, pursue my interests and be home for my kiddos. Once they were in school full time I signed up for painting classes. Best thing I ever did next to divorcing my ex, kidding of course, ok be nice, Susie :)
So while the rest of my blogging buddies are getting nostalgic with Christmas ornaments, music, and reminiscing of Christmas' past. I was reminiscing about how my love of painting has completely evolved and how it has become a huge part of who I am and what makes me happy. And I would like to share it with you...
 |
| My very first piece and I still have it. Well who the heck else would want it?? |
 |
| I love this because it was the first piece I did by myself at my kitchen table with no instructions but the book. |
 |
| I love Ros Stallcup! She is an artist who just goes with it, no patterns and I loved doing her stuff for a LONG time and still do! Did this for my sister using her technique. |
 |
| Then I got into murals and it just wasn't my calling. |
 |
| I really love this although not my style. It was one of those I can't believe I painted this kinda pieces. |
 |
| I so loved doing this. I painted it for the school auction along with 2 matching chairs. Definitely one of my faves! |
 |
| And lastly, crazy detailed but love her stuff, Betty Caithness design. So much time but so worth it! |

Hope you enjoyed my trip down memory lane! I know I did :)
