Living the Dream

My photo
I grew up at "the end of the road" in the very small size woodsy town called Ely in way northern Minnesota (5hrs north of Minneapolis) and quickly got out ;) Went to MCAE art school for 11th and 12th grade in Minneapolis. After that I just journeyed around a bunch!, a bunch a bunch! from Arizona to Colorado, from Seattle to San Francisco and every where around them, with of course the adventure to Europe and traveling all over from Spain to Amsterdam judging the Cannabis Cup to skiing down the Swiss Alps, seeing the Dali museum and sitting at Jim Morrison's grave. I now live in Seattle with friends and family spread out all over, I love to paint and to pay the bills I've worked lots of jobs but I'm good with people so restaurant work has made for a good fit. Plus with the whole jump up and go traveling thing. What else, what else... I don't know there's tons, look for the book. And Hey! Please comment (remember you need to follow me to comment) and I'm still painting so there's often new stuff, I'd love to have you as a follower and hear your comments, or as known on my page a dream makers :)
Butterflies for Mom
Needle Point
6" by 6"

My mom was moving and gave me a box of a bunch
of old pictures, files, report cards other stuff she wanted me 
to check out before she just chucked it. In the bottom
of the box was a plastic bag filled with different 
colored yarn, needles, patterns, and needlepoint pallets.
It was my mom's from when she had 
more time to be crafty back in the 70's /80's 
So in a time in my life where I had ALOT of time, I grabbed
a blank pallet and some 25 year old yarn and went to 
town. I did this for my fantastic mother when I was in 
Minnesota in 2006.
