A little glimpse of my studio/office. It's a happy place with photos of loves ones and a large sunny window.

I love the pearl "create" word that hangs from the mirror in my studio. A very important word for an artist.

The view outside my studio window during the long, cold New England winters!

This is where orders are packaged.

And this is Baby, my little Quality Control manager, who inspects all orders before they go out the door!
"Any arbitrary turning along the way, and I would be elsewhere. I would be different."
That quote from Frances [Diane Lane] in Under the Tuscan Sun (one of my favorite movies) sums up how I feel about my art career. It was a chance lunch with a friend on a warm September day in 1994... a chance stroll through our town center... a chance encounter with a painting shop that led me to where I am today. Had any of those things not occurred, I would be elsewhere. I would be different.
Although I never took any lessons beyond that one night a week / 6 week beginner course that I signed up for that day, I was hooked. I painted furiously at home, which led to selling my work in craft fairs, and eventually, to where I am today.
I'm not sure where I'd be had there been "any arbitrary turning along the way," but I am so grateful that there wasn't. I think this path, for me, was meant to be.
(Thank you to my mom and dad, who came to every craft fair I was ever in. Mom, you "oohed and aahed" over all the drawings I did as a child. Dad, how I wish I had some of the original 'pin-up girl' drawings that you created for the other GI's during WWII. You are both my heroes! I love you and miss you every day!)
I hope you all enjoy your visit to Etsy!
All my best,
Donna
