Troublemakers - Get Misunderstood

Well.... As I sum up 2012...and it slowly shuts the door upon us. I'm very thankful for the things that have brought me to this existing  pinnacle. It's a very interesting place. I'm currently in to say the least. A place that has had me thinking more about the "have not's". This year I felt pressed in my heart to make the women's battered shelter gifts. What I later found out  was that it was also battered kids, and men...... I sent a muslin cloth of hand made one of a kind gifts to everyone in that shelter. I've never been battered, abused, nor neglected. However I felt a yearning to help? I can not imagine to be in such a place.

As 2013 .....Encroaches upon us,  I am truly humble for what you will bring me. I aspire to be positively effectual in every path I meet or cross.......Not to give credit to EVIL------ However we already have enough of it. I know the "Fat Lady has not sung".... but someday she will--------- in the mean time.......... I will Love My Neighbor/fellow man as myself. I Will use my words to lift up and not to tear down.............

Bringing it all Together........

This year I only painted one painting, which is a bit strange for me............12 years of pumping out.....to just 1 for the year. Things have changed. However; creativity needs to be kept fresh and alive.......

I've spent the past year focused on hands on creativity..... jewelry, and as you already have seen my new found love for leather. Well...... I'm happy to have come "FULL CIRCLE". I will now be offering limited edition artwork on my one-of-a-kind bags......... I'm currently tagging each run of a bag with a special seal that keeps the bags and the original artwork special..... This encourages the painting level to be raised and the creativity to be challenged.......Stay Tuned!

Samples of the 1st two runs of fabric for the handmade bags:


It's like this short film on The Perfect Illustration The Finest Occupation:

Fusion

The Past few weeks have been crazy gearing up for some wonderful vendor/product love..... I was asked the other day to explain what I look for in the things I do for an article to be published ..... I sat there.....for a VERY LONG TIME. "What do I LOOK FOR........". I Thought to myself... "I don't look for anything..... it's a mear fusion." Classically trained... with a voice of my own. Just like this video:
