NEW Facebook and Twitter

Today I took the time to create a page on FACEBOOK for my art only and TWITTER as well. Make sure to "follow" and "like" me pretty please.

Changes can be good!

For me changes can be a scary thing. This year so far has brought me more changes than ever before. I had to make the choice to stop teaching due to a bad knee and my world was turned upside down...

Teaching art to kids has for the last few years been what I saw myself doing until old age. I had knee surgery a year ago and thought I was home free only to find out very recently that I have arthritis in the same knee... :(

So I spend a few weeks moping around and feeling sorry for myself.... then I picked myself up, dusted off and started planning for this new part of my life...

I have so many other wonderful things going on in my life.... I sell my art in two different galleries on eBay, I have my own store "Jeanette's Folk Art" on eBay and a store on Etsy as well. I have a wonderfully huge and bright studio out in town that I have not used as much as I like and.... I have a super lovely sewing machine...

so....

I moved my painting and sewing supplies from my "tiny" home studio to my "huge" out in town studio and started to sew handbags and clutches.... OH how much fun it was to get out of the house to do what I love to do... CREATE!!!!!

I painted a large painting since I have the room to do so....

The sewing machine was sewing up a storm....

Changes can be good and not too scary if you embrace them.

Keep an eye out for my next post when I will launch my new line of bags....

Enjoy your day.... I AM!!!!

Watercolor Cards

I never know what I am going to paint until it ends up on paper or canvas...

I never know what mood I'm in until I see it in my art....

Looks like I'm waiting for spring....

Less work more art

SOLD

Sometimes it's hard to stay positive....

Like when 364 days into knee surgery recovery you re injure your knee...

Can't work (teaching art to K and 1st grade)...

Can't walk without a bad limp....

Knee brace is itching....

HATE crutches...

So I stay positive...

I will be able to make more art...

More research on fun and educational art lessons for kids...

Publish Kids Art Classroom...

The MRI is later today and I see the knee Dr tomorrow afternoon...

Keeping my fingers crossed...
