I Love My Colors and My Colors Are Me!

About Me


I am a pretty private person until I get to know you. I love to spend time creating ART and writing, with life's little twists and turns I don't get as much time as I would like on my art. I am always looking for a new way to express my creative side. I have taught art to grammer school kids and I loved it. Thanks to "some" the budget for art and music programs especially in California has been dissapearing more and more. One day I would love to return as that was truly a bright point in my life. It is great to see the way children create. The artwork here on my page is a representation of several pieces I have found and love and not neccessarily a representation of my own works. I generally work in mosaic and jewelry but love to try different medias all the time...
I had a pretty rough childhood and upbringing but I didn't let that dictate who I was or who I would become. I love my culture and heritage but I am open to the teaching and beliefs of other cultures as well. I think we all came from the same place once upon a time and the need for unity is CRITICAL!!
I believe in FAMILY and that you don't have to be born into one to belong to one. I believe in metaphysics and am very spiritual. I am a single mom who has a pretty great kid. Well he's not a kid anymore but he's grown into a pretty awsome guy.
My friends are few and have generally been around a long time. I have a lot of aquaintances I will talk to anymone who wants to have good conversation but I take very few close into the inner circle.
I live close to the ocean and can't imagine living anywhere else. The ocean is my sanctuary. I have many, many interests but love spending time with my man. I am "selfish" about our time together and my friends and family are well aware of that flaw in my character. I am firm but fair and believe in no "BS" and please no "Drama"! I don't drop mine on you so PLEASE don't bring yours into my rehlm either...
