It may come as a surprise to some of my readers and followers, but I have a rebellious streak in me that made me a less than ideal student, a problem daughter and ex-wife to 3 men. I’ve never liked being told what I should do or how I should act. I am a rule breaker and an outspoken independent woman. My mother would often scold calling me a little brat. Her favorite line was, “That mouth of yours is going to get you into real trouble someday.” I suppose she was right in that I have found myself in many uncomfortable situations over the years by words I’ve said. After my first meeting with my now Mother-In-Law she told my husband, “Wow, she will say anything.” But that openness is also my “saving grace”. It enabled me to stand up to an abuser declaring enough was enough. I exposed everything without leaving off details and was able to heal. It is also what has allowed me to be a “real” mom to my own child. She was never confused about where babies came from or whether or not Santa was real. This same freedom of thought and voice is also what gives me the ability to create artwork without following set guidelines. Because I do not limit myself in any way, I am able to paint with acrylics, take photographs or use my computer to produce artwork.
What is your “saving grace”? It just might be something that you were told was “bad” about you, but in reality turns out to be something so very “good”.

Her Heart Has Wings
Her heart has wings,
for more than flight.
They give her strength.
They give her sight.
Her heart has wings,
battered by the wind.
They do not break.
They help her bend.
Her heart has wings,
that can’t be tied.
And hopes and dreams.
That won’t be denied.
Her heart has wings,
for so much more.
Her body has limits.
But her spirit will soar…

Ask most people if they are honest and they will say “yes” with absolute conviction. We as a people like to think that we have integrity and morals. In the larger picture, that may be true. After all the majority of the population obey the rules and stay out of jail. We work hard and raise our children to be upstanding citizens. We pay our taxes. We live an honorable life.
But the truth is (pun intended) that we tell “little” lies all of the time. We convince our little ones that there is this person called Santa Claus. We tell our friends we have other plans when we just do not feel like going out to dinner with them. We call in sick to work when what we really want is a day off. And we tell our mate we had a salad for lunch when we really had a cheeseburger in order to avoid conflict. And one of the biggest lies we all tell is that we are “fine” when someone asks how we are doing when we really feel horrible. In fact, we are a lying culture because it is much more acceptable to be polite than sincere.
Where am I going with all of this? I honestly do not know, except to explore just how complex our ethics really are. We are taught that lying is wrong, but we are also taught that you shouldn’t hurt people. The truth hurts sometimes….so we avoid it. Because the lesser of two evils is to spare someone’s feelings. Or is it to spare our own? Conflict avoidance seems to be one of the biggest triggers for dishonesty.
In my own life, I try to avoid doing things that I would need to lie about to the people I love. My child was also never subjected to the “stork” and Santa Claus was “The Christmas Spirit”. But am I 100% honest?
My newest piece above titled “Honesty” is. 🙂

What do you see when you peer through the looking glass? Original paintings fused together to create unique one of a kind pieces. Let me mirror your imagination. You might see an angel or a warrior. Owls, dogs, frogs and kings. All are hidden (or not so hidden) within these colors. The more you look, the more you see! Enjoy this new colorful menagerie.
MY N.E.W. SERIES!! “The Looking Glass”……so much to see….more here (2 more coming today and many more coming soon, so check back often!):

When was the last time you met someone who was really charming? You know the type. Someone who has an open, friendly and contagious smile. A person who has a real way with words and could convince you that just about anything was absolutely wonderful simply because they believe it is! I am talking about the genuine type and not the sleazy car salesperson who is trying to be charming just to sell you a car. Do you even know someone like this? Are you sure? You may not be able to know the motives of people, but look deep into my new painting and be “charmed”……be sure…..

I’ve been looking through The Looking Glass again…..actually I’ve been playing around in it for quite some time now. I had 22 images to share with the World and got them all up yesterday. Whew! I am getting ready for the Holiday season and promotion and custom work will be the names of the game for the next 6 weeks. I will not have much time to create new paintings let alone list them! So enjoy these NEW pieces until the crazy time ends!

This piece intrigued me from the moment I fused the acrylic images together. I saw a sleeping moose and a cow with her eyes closed immediately. But I struggled for a name and I was stuck. I posted the image on my Facebook fan page to see what others might see in the work. The response was phenomenal! So many got involved and had ideas and saw things I never considered. Ultimately one of my fans saw a beast at the top and a beauty beneath and once I saw those images, that made the title he chose perfect….”Beauty And The Beast”…..so much to see.
