| Introduction | When I was a child, the only things I wanted to play with were paper, scissors, colors, glue, tape ... Today, in my 60s, I still want to play with those things. The creative side of me crept into my careers in sales and producing expositions and special events. Even though I don't create for a living now, I seem to be driven just as much. There aren't too many mediums I haven't attempted, but my loves today are acrylics, jewelry, mixed media, and papier collage mosaics. I wish I could make myself work with just one thing, but that will never happen. I always said writing would be my last career. I am in heaven when someone trust me with their life story. I combine writing and art and produce their stories in a beautiful, hand-bound book. I also believe very strongly in positive thinking and affirmations. I write affirmations for people ... to help with every thing from sickness to a new baby to depression ... and produce them in artsy books. Affirmations work! |
| Interests | The arts, affirmations, positive thinking, writing, jewelry making, designing, my home, nature ..... |
| Favorite movies | Under the Tuscan Sun is my favorite. Guess I still want to run away to Provence and Tuscany. |
| Favorite music | K D Lang's performance at the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympics stops my heart. I recorded it and play it almost every day. Music is in my soul. Celtic Women, Streisand, 40s and 50s, dreamy music. |
| Favorite books | Books make me feel rich. Reading relaxes me and get me out of my current environment. Too many I love to have a favorite. |
