About Me

My photo
Without making myself sound too boring, I will say I am married for 34 years and have one married daughter and 3 grandchildren. I work part-time doing independent contract work for retail stores and also work for the Catholic Schools Lunch Program. Enough to keep me in spending money! I belong to several online art groups, the biggest being AAWA. This group has expanded my horizons in mixed media artistry. I enjoy altering items such as cigar boxes, bottles and books to name a few. I like to do collage, iris folding, ATCs, 4x4s, inchies,and plain old card making. I have dabbled with clay, made domino jewelry and glass slide pieces. I don't mind trying new things, but I am a visual person and need to see an example or have hands on guidance. Maybe that's an age thing!

It's been a productive day...


I finished a 3D shadow box for an inspiration mingle featuring a dalmation dog. It amazes me that I can sit around and rack my brain for an idea on something and all of a sudden the light bulb goes on and it all comes together!

I also received the Wild West wand in the mail today from Joan (AAWA). It is very awesome and I'm so happy to have been a recipient of her "extras." Another box came with a bunch of wine corks in it from Gloria H., another AAWA member, so now I can get started on my wine cork wreath as I have enough now. I'm very grateful for the generosity of some of these women.
