My desire to become an artist has been calling me for some time now and I always seem to find reasons to never un-tap that passion or talent within me. I feel pulled in so many directions as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend, that I seem to hold off on trying to discover the more that is within me.
Right now, I do pursue ART in referring to photography and crafts which makes life easy to balance but lately I feel the spirit nudging me on even stronger to get more serious with this form of art . I am sure it has alot to do with the Lord blessing me to envision life on canvas. I have put it off for too long. So, according to time, there is no better time than now!
I have always been inspired by paintings while growing up and I have for the most part a natural knack for drawing but I know this will still be a challenge to teach myself and try to figure out all the different kinds of paints that are out there. So far, I feel drawn to oil paints. Even though I have never explored with them or let alone touched them; At this point, I have nothing to lose.
The only paints that I have experience with is water coloring and finger paints (with Maleha) and maybe a little bit with acrylic. I can definitely see this being a long journey ahead of me but a challenge worth taking. Well, with all this talking and writing I hope to share and post my first ART piece by the end of this year. Wish me luck!

Artist run in the family, you are so talented I think you would be amazing. The church is asking for members outside of the church to send in art. I will send you the link.

I think you should do it!!! I have been thinking about trying oils as well, but I'm so worried about spending the dough and totally wasting my time and sucking at it.
