MY JOURNEY...

As a child I was always interested in art. I remember one of my favorite gifts as a child was an easel and smock from one of my Mom's friends. I think from that moment on my joy in creating was to become a lifelong quest. My journey has taken several different paths along the way. I've done everything from painting tee's for craft shows to commercial quilting with a professional long arm machine and most recently lampworking (making glass beads with a torch). However, all of that came to a screeching halt when I got my first DSLR camera. I have found my little piece of heaven, my nirvana.... I've always loved photography. It as always one of those things I wished I could do. There's something about the brilliance of a sunset, or the tranquility of a lake on a summer afternoon, or even the crazy bold accessories of a model in a fashion magazine that speaks to my heart. It resonates deep within and calls for me to learn, to explore... and that's exactly what I've done. The sewing machine sits idle, the torch is cool to the touch but the shutter of the camera is constantly clicking, creating, exploring....

I'M BACK!

Living without a computer has been interesting but I'm back now.  YAY!  I'm working on creating a store on ETSY.  http://www.etsy.com/  ETSY offers ALL kinds of handmade or handcrafted items.  If you're looking for something unique for that special someone ETSY is the place to go.  Look for me soon!

I'm also busy working on a summer promotion for the Ash Fork area.  Details coming soon!  This will be the perfect time to take advantage of my summer sale!

With summer heat in full swing I did get a chance to cool off for a few days in Laughlin.  What a great place to visit!  I stayed at the River Palms which offers really nice rooms, the most comfy beds, and AIR CONDITIONING!  Laughlin has a lot to offer even if you're not into gaming.  The outlet mall is awesome.  There are two movie theaters, a bowling alley, jet skis, boating, and wonderful restaurants.  It's a perfect "beat the heat" mini vacation.  I got up early one morning and walked the river.  Here's a couple of shots from my adventure.

Have a great week and Stay Cool!
