I guess I'm having a sort of identity crisis...what do I want to be when I grow up?? Well, since I should already know and don't, I believe this blog may help me figure it out!!
I'm certainly not a writer ..as you will soon see...but I want to do so many things that I do not know which way to turn. I work full time in sales and also do interior design..I think I'm pretty good at the design end...not so strong in the sales department...I love to paint (in oils) but I'm not driven enough to make myself go to the studio...I like to organize for others but can't make myself finish anything at home!!! I was hoping to start a business in organizing and design but have not put enough effort into it!!
My favorite expression is "in my next life"!! I have decided that at almost 60 I need to make NOW my "next life". In 2009 I got to meet my sister-in-law in France to join her for a month long trip (that she organized) to see the countryside and to paint together. It was the trip of a lifetime and has started a desire in me to travel more and paint what I have seen. We snapped plenty of shots to work from and I have started a series of paintings to remind me of the amazing sights I got to enjoy.
This will be a place where I will begin to take the art I create ( and maybe some photos) and start to keep my travels documented...even if they are not in the correct time order!! Since I didn't start painting in order it would be too hard to keep the travels in order!!
I hope to also begin to work for myself and hope this pushes me to start (and complete) some jobs and get my name out there!!
I will be posting the first painting I completed with a description of where I was soon...please keep watching!!!
