Terms

Its been a month already and I have seen more in this past month then I have in the past year. My life is certainly coming to a changing point. Now that my children are older, I have decided that it may be time to take care of me. I have come to terms with myself. Earlier in May I went on a fantastic journey to Art and Soul in Hampton VA. I met so many wonderful and talented people. I was truly in my element. I dreamed of living in an artist colony where we could all just live and create art together everyday. But alas the real world rarely possesses a place like this. I mean we do have to pay for shelter and food. ;o)

I have come to terms with myself and decided that this would be what I want out of life to travel, meet and create art with like minds. Most of my life, actually 33 years of it, I have surrounded myself with people who don't have interests or care about the same ideas or things I do. I understand now how that has stifled my growth for so long. Well I am ready to expand on my journey and grow further as my art muse calls me. Being self taught sometimes I can be unsure about what I want to pursue. But I think that's where I will have the most fun is finding out what things I like best. Because I am going to try my hand at each art technique and see what tickles my fancy. Wish me luck!
