isn't she cute!! someone told me last week that my art was a little "scarey"
i giggled so hard...ME? are you serious? they had looked at my etsy shop
and at the time i had only skull pins and a few pen & inks which yeah i guess
are dark in theme....but scarey??? now come over and see my doll heads in
the garden then ya might be scared. HAHAHA she said her interent filter wouldn't
let her view my site!! wow who knew i was so "witchy"!!



the comment kinda stuck with me for a bit as i really love and admire the person, but obviously shes
only seen part of me! i've done lots of ministry with her, actually am a part time chaplin
with her families ministry.....she said she thought wow how could this sweet soft spoken gal that
i know have "this" in her!!!! hahaha  good thing she didn't judge me by her impression of my art!
i very rarely care what anyone thinks of me or my art yet this comment made me *aware* of how
others may see me. i've come along way baby to enjoy this freedom i aint goin back now!!!



this is along side the creepy head...i so love teapots and little girls shoes!!

these new drawings i'm making into cards & gift tags.

errrr then i thought ok just a little bit of a dark blue
then i got STUCK
then how bout some orange NO NO can't stop!!!
BUT i LOVE orange
OK just a lil bit
well then
lil purple
DANG i need to stop
so i did and now i'm stuck

DAMN
*(&(*&(230(***
we've got a problem now here comes yellow
and well forget it!!!!!



so here's what i ended up with thus far.........in the back you can see a piece of the totally rebellious colorful one
errrr but lets not talk about that yet


i'm gonna have to start all over.....................

i have a creative challenge
to fill a international cafe with *drumroll*

brown and black
elegant,
contemporary
yet "traditional" in nature
art.

now when you think of my art

is this ANY descriptive word you would relate to me???

oh heck no!!!
*head on desk*

i'm thinking trees.
i like trees
they are brown, yah?
*insert big sigh*

i recently posted a collage sheets here
and trees are the theme.

i think this is where i'll draw my inspriation from.
ok so i'll be posting my work as i progress.

i know i CAN do it.
i just dont want to! *insert whine*

and this is how we overcome.
sorry its a song and its the first thing that came to me.
oy the drama!!!!

new art coming soon

LOVE

the beautiful people of haiti

hungry

hungry


for God

hungry
for purpose
hungry

there are
those
who
are
hungry

yes they are

this is my "papa", my pastor,my mentor
under whom i've sat as he's filled me with hope
and purpose
through listening to God's Spirit
and passing it on
changing the world
one person at a time.

the video stirs my passion
knowing each and every person there
walked miles and miles
and sat in the hot sun
all to worship!!
i mean the HUNGER
they are hungry!!
they are HUNGRY
to seek God.

btw he's on a missions trip to haiti
where we (our church) have schools
all the beautiful kiddos faces you see
and many churches under pastors covering
we're not a denomination
we're just people
passionate for jesus
oh if you touch him
you would be too......
i giggle watching him
cause he's not usually so animated
he really was "feelin" it!

my lifes continually changing
but this time in a major way
i recently changed positions
i am hungry for God
i am passionate about people
i am hungry
i am SO passionate
about hurting people
i truly can't express in words
my passion

my prayer has always been
to see people hungry
for God
hungry enough
to move
to stop being about themselves
to take what they have and give it away
for completely unselfish reasons
to love unconditionally

its time
to elevate
my prayers are answered
i'm going to the nations
