Heavenly Hydrangeas
Hello my friend's and family! Again it's been a while since I blogged! So sorry about that!
Honestly, my Granddaughter has taken over my life! Since she will be 2 in July, she's getting better at entertaining herself! She's certainly a cutie patootie and she's full of herself.

So, why did I title this, "It's An Art Thing!"? This blog has always been about creativity and how I express that in a farm setting. Usually it's through flowers, gardening, and crafts.
However, painting pictures has also been a part of my life for a long time. I started out painting pictures on the walls in my house, then I moved onto murals in my kids bedrooms, then murals for the kids section at my church, then finally, I started painting landscapes on smaller canvasses.
So, have y'all (that's Ozark twang) noticed the really big prints hanging on the walls in businesses? A lot of them are floral and I'm all about flowers! Anyway, every time I saw one I kept thinking, I could do that!
Right after Christmas I gave myself the gift of acrylic paint, canvasses, and paint brushes! I sqeezed in the time after bedtime for the boys and during nap time for Jaylyn. I started out with abstract Floral paintings! Here is one of my favorites!
Rose Explosion Too
I basically painted a lot of pictures in a short amount of time. We started to run out of room for them!

So, I got on Artspan.com and created a website and a Gallery. Actually, I have 2 galleries, one for photography and one for paintings. Just go to my gallery. You can purchase prints, or the original art. So be sure you check that out!
Since then, I have gotten into more of an impressionistic style. These will be also available on Artspan gallery.
