I do not know what possessed me to start a blog. Seems like the thing to do nowdays.
Perhaps part of it is wanting to write something that is not on paper or in a book that I might misplace. My computer is much too big to lose! I just hope I can find my blog again, LOL.
I spend altogether too much time on line. There is so much to learn, so many people to meet that have similar interests, and so many things to see here that I would never see IRL.
My passion for pictures has severely limited the speed of the 'puter (according to DS) because I save, save, save beautiful things I see. My bookmarks list could probably circle the globe at least once. I guess I am an information junkie, too.
My main interest since retiring is painting. Oils (landscape, floral, still life) , acrylics (folk art), and colored pencil are my preferred mediums at the moment. I have only dabbled in watercolor, and would like to try pastels. *Sigh* maybe in my second life. Right.
Seriously, I put off my art interest for years until I had time for it, and regret that I didn't make more time for it sooner. My foray into crafts in the early 90's led me to learn to tole/decorative paint. I had a great teacher, and would still go to her classes if she hadn't retired, too.
I am quite addicted to patterns and pattern books; need to sell some and downsize.
Oh, well...someday. For now, ebay must wait...the laundry is calling me.
