Visual Art – Boise

My bio, in 250 words or less... Well, I am a daughter, sister, mother, and friend. I love beautiful things, and I can find them anywhere. I have always considered myself to be a creator, because I was created. It\'s in my nature. I tend to get a little cranky if I can\'t work with my hands. I paint, knit, crochet, fold origami, tie macrame, and play in dirt. I love my family with all my heart and my daughters are (ahem, biased opinion) the most beautiful people to brighten the earth with their smiles. Despite my own share of misfortunes and mistakes, I have to say I am one of the lucky ones. My family has always supported me. They have provided the encouragement and gentle guidance I need to bloom, and loved me relentlessly when I was lost. God bless them for it, because I am quite independent (a.k.a. stubborn and hard-headed). I love to sing. In fact, it is quite difficult to get me to shut up. While I grew up playing the guitar, I feel more at home sitting at my piano. I also love to dance, but usually end up embarrassing my coworkers with my sporadic outbursts! That\'s alright though, I\'m not particularly concerned with being cool. In the end, all I want is Jesus. Every day I try to find more ways to be closer to Him. Somedays I find Him in art, other days in my flowers... But I always find Him.
