I am a girl that got annoyed when my doctor called me middle aged and am still wondering exactly what I\u2019m going to be when I grow up.<\/p>\n
I wear pirate shoes and a polymer clay beaded lanyard when I go to yoga at the YMCA. I have Jack Johnson, Prince, Dianna Krall, and the Black Eyed Peas on my iPod. I get a lump in my throat when I see a great piece of art or hear powerful music.<\/p>\n
I am a good girl. My husband describes me as a \u201c\u2026square with slightly rounded corners.\u201d We\u2019ve been married for over 26 years now and I would marry him all over again.<\/p>\n
I have two beautiful, unique and independent children who I am absolutely nuts about.<\/p>\n
Somewhere along the way I figured out that I\u2019m much better at being myself than trying to be someone else. And I try really hard to make sure my kids are true to who they are too.<\/p>\n
I can do just about anything AND have done just about every type of job out there\u2026 but am very grateful that my life eventually brought me back to art\u2026 what I should have been doing all along.<\/p>\n
For over fifteen years now, I have been working with\u2026 and have taught many different mediums including acrylic painting, children\u2019s art murals, painted glass, glass tile mosaics, punched tin, making handmade paper, scrapbooking, beaded jewelry\u2026 and I am absolutely crazy about polymer clay.<\/p>\n
I am a no B.S. kind of gal and will tell it like it is. I like to simplify and break things down into easy-to-understand and follow, bite size pieces. I think that is one of the main reasons why my students like me so much.<\/p>\n
I now think there are officially too many I\u2019s and me\u2019s on this page and solemnly promise to make the rest of your visit, all about YOU and YOUR creative journey!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
