HAPPY AUTUMN!!
"The Pumpkin Patch"
It seems I've jumped directly from August to November here on my blog!... an unintended "Blog Vacation" on my part for sure! Since the beginning of the new school year, I've been learning a new job (I'm the part time administrative assistant at preschool), helping out in the 3 year old classroom, keeping up with "normal" life at home, and trying my best to squeeze in a little art time. I've been reminded once again that I'm a "one-thing-at-a-time kinda gal", and NOT a born multi-tasker! :)
But my heart and mind are never far from my love for creating! I've continued to fill my sketchbook with artful ideas before they whiz through my brain. I've splurged on some new Copic markers that I am absolutely loving! And I've been researching a new direction for my artwork... digital stamps for papercrafting. This is an exciting avenue, one I haven't considered before, and I'm eager to see where it takes me!
I realized recently that I'd never posted a picture of myself on my blog. I'm a bit shy about this, but I know that I always like to link a name with a face. So, here goes!...
Wishing you all the JOYS that Autumn holds!!

Nice to have you back and to see your smiling face!
BEAUTIFUL! (and the art and blog post too)
Hello, nice to "see "you!!
Smiling back at you!!
Ah Patti, so nice to see you. I am not especially fond of pictures of myself, but it is really nice I think - it helps to put a face with the words. You are beautiful!!
Your plate is certainly full these days. Are you enjoying your new job??
My apologies for taking so long in thanking you ALL for your sweet comments!... Where has November gone???
For me, it's been a month filled with 3 year old needs (zipping jackets, wiping noses, negotiating disagreements) & 3 year old fun (playing outside in the colorful leaves, painting scarecrows, reading Autumn books, and learning the "chicken dance"). And YES, Mary!... I really LOVE my job!! :)
I've also started creating some digital stamps & listing them in my Etsy shop! I'm excited about moving in this direction, and I'm praying that the Lord will open up new opportunities for me!
Thank you ALL for your interest, love, & support... I am smiling back at each of you & wish you a very BLESSED Thanksgiving!!!
How lovely to "meet" the lovely YOU! :-)
Thank you, Chris!... You are a sweetie! I hope all is well for you! :)
