Bringing everyone up to date

I started selling my art online

in August of 2004.

I believe I have now sold more than

2000 pieces of art...mostly originals.

That's a lot of creating...and a lot of work.

I do enjoy painting and creating,

but I don't like for it to feel like 'work'.

I need to

expand my horizons a bit.

I'm not giving up my art...but I am going

to do fewer pieces this next year.

I always quit painting about the beginning of

December...for one thing...the holidays are so hectic.

Then, I begin again right after the New Year.

I should imagine this next year will be

much the same.

But, next year I'm diversifying.

I've begun writing articles. I only have a few

at this time, partly because of how busy

I've been with my Shops.

So, I decided that I am going to do

more writing this next year and I've started with

articles. I enjoy the research

and the writing.

Let me know what you

think.

I'm still a little rusty, but I don't think

they're awful.

My next article is going to be

My Top 5

Best College Bowl

MatchUps

in

NCAA History.

You might wonder why I selected this

from the list of topics to write about...

well...my husband was a huge

football fan and I

was a good wife.

I watched all the games

with him!
