It all started with Word Art. I love the mixture of words and visual art. I am inspired by combining the two to create something as meaningful as it is beautiful. I see objects as what they could be, not what they are. So began my ventures in creating messages in mixed media. I started an Etsy shop of some of my creations to share with the world. This blog, however, is of personal projects. Come take a look and see what I've rewritten...

Healing
A year ago my mother passed away. When we purchased this house I knew I would be planning a big garden here. She taught me my love for gardening and in her last year of life we grew our biggest garden ever. We had so many plans for this new garden we even began purchasing trees while in our rental house. Those plants and trees now have a home and I wanted to dedicate the garden to her on the one year anniversary of her death. I searched for something online but could not find anything perfect so I knew I had to create a dedication plaque myself. I used my dremel to carve the design and later filled it in with homemade chalk paint. I love how it turned out.
