Here we go....

Ok this blog entry is going to be mostly about ME! (Selfish? Nope...sometimes you have to do that!)
Since I can remember, if you asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up......artist. I can't imagine doing anything else.  Sometimes you have a picture of what a career looks like that isn't accurate.  I have been a graphic designer, I have been a muralist, and I have been a stay at home mom. All of these jobs include art, but more of it was about painting and creating other peoples ideas.  I have a notebook full of ideas of my own that I would like to do, but for who? what would I do with them when they are done? Would anyone spend $ for them?  Then these serious questions are interupted by one of my girls smacking the other one and the other one screaming. Who am I kidding? I am not in the stage of life to make this work.  Maybe later........

until...my AMAZING friend Stacia called me last week.  The call went a little something like this.  "Lindsay, would you like to share a booth with me at the covered bridge festival?"  Me: " Helping you sell your flowers?" (she makes AMAZINGLY beautiful things!) then slowly getting it that I could do my own things and sell them! I almost peed!  I have hardly thought of anything else.  Isn't God awesome! Just when you resign that "it is just going to be this way"  it changes!!!

I have a few projects that I am in the middle of here, then I am CREATING things!!!!  I will be posting things and in a whirl wind of ART!!!!!
