Hi and Welcome to my Art Blog!

I'm new at this blog-thing and I'm more of a visual person than a writer, so you may get more things to look at and not much to read about.

In the real world I'm a Real Estate Broker, married to the most amazing man who takes care of me & our three beautiful girls, and I'm also a photographer. I couldn't ask for anything better. I am truly blessed! But, I needed to find something to help me slow down. I was running myself into the ground....physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I needed to find a way to "just be". Well, after having another MS attack (yep, I have Multiple Sclerosis) I'm on my new journey now and I stumbled across a new path. So, I started painting. It was hard for me at first. Trying to make my painting look "perfect", whatever that is. Getting so frustrated when it didn't turn out the way it looked like in my mind. Finally, I just "let go". I let go of expectations and learned how to relax & slow down a bit. I started painting more with how I felt instead of what I thought it should look like. Once I let my art, or myself, "just be", I started really loving what I was creating. Now I paint with my heart instead of my busy mind. My art is so much more meaningful to me now. It's a bitter-sweet moment when I sell a piece because it is such a part of me. But I'm so grateful when it touches someone else the way it touches me. More for the way it has allowed me to learn to heal within myself.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Enjoy!
