WELCOME!


You are now three years into my past. All of the images you see here are from the year 2002. I've changed a lot over the past few years, and I'm in the process of building several profiles to show each of you what I was once like. I am hoping to have links to each on each, and all you will have to do is click on the year to see that version. I hope you enjoy browsing through my history. I will have some interesting information on each when I'm finished.

At this time I lived in a town called Heber Springs AR. I was just realizing that I may actually have a talent I never knew I could posess within my artwork. At the urging of my friends, I entered one of my pieces of art into the Cleburne County Fair. Much to my own surprise, I won! I didnt just win a 3rd place ribbon -
I won First Place and Best of show at the county fair, so it continued on down to the Tri-County fair. It did eaqually as well there, much to my own surprise. I was absolutely thrilled to learn that it would be competing at the State Fair! I didnt care if it didn't win. I never thought I would make it that far.
It won.
Again.
I recieved a $50 award as the Gallery Award for entering a contest I would not have entered had it not been for friends. Every penny from that generous award went straight to my friends shortly after when needing help with finances. I would never have been given that money if it was not for them, and at the time, they needed it more than I did.
That winter I made the decision to move to California to see what I could accomplish. Since then, I created many works of art, including the background for this profile, using ony colored pencils.PimpYoPage.Com
