Hi, Welcome to my blog... I have been an artist all my life really, but professionally for about 14 years. There is no project that I will not try once, usually I will try it until I perfect it. Along the way, I have learned so many helpful tips to save time and money that I would like to share on painting and woodworking and a variety of other fun how to's.....

To be truly inspired...
INspire, inspired, inspiring;
Webster's Dictionary defines the word "To breathe into, to fill with breath, to animate.
I LOVE this definition because often I hear that word, and I even say it quite a bit, but what it FEELS like to be truly inspired is to me like what the ground must feel like under your feet right before an earthquake starts to happen. I get the rumblings of something coming, and then......it is as if, God leans in and whispers to me "Are you ready for this? Cause, I've got somethin' for ya". Then here it comes, 1000 beautiful wonderful surging ideas , notes, colors, expressions, pictures, scents, and feelings, all crashing over me like a wave. In my dizziness, I try to right myself and focus on one thing, but I want to do it all, make it all, use it all. In that moment, I feel rich beyond measure at what I have just been given. Then. Silence. Until the next wave hits. This is to me what it feels like to be truly inspired, and it happens to me once or twice a day. So, I was just wondering if it only happens to me that way? Share with me how you are truly inspired...
