refined state of mind's photostream

Greetings Fellow Astist! I'm so excited to be in the presence of a-like minds... I've been an artist even b4 birth- It's in my blood, from making my bed to baking a pizza, somehow it always ends up looking like a painting to others and normal to me...lol.

I'm a mom of 2 beach babies...a 6yr.daugther any my son who is 3. A girl whom loves bugs and a boy who you can't pull away from the computer....unless we're off to the beach! Wife to my handsome husband who loves to to fish. Recently relocating to Virginia Beach from NC by way of Wash,DC and Boston.

I use my imagination very well. I love to make something out of nothing so to speak. I love all forms of ART. I eat sleep and breath....creativity- May it be music, dance, doodling and yes scrapbookn' It's always been apart of my life and will be until my purpose is met. I love to travel,laugh and even cry a good cry every once in awhile. I'm no stranger when it comes to trying something new- Always in the kitchen...lol..

TRADING: I'm ready when you are...2 trade that is:) I'd love to trade 2or more at a time, it not only cuts down on postage...it's worth it and fun! Just send me an e-mail with the name and number of the card.

Prior Navy and now I'm a Vet! Had a chance to travel the 7seas while stationed in Guam. If only I could return.... Ah, Virginia Beach will have to do:-) When the Marines wouldn't take me...because of my asthma, The Navy let me in and said " Don't tell anyone else"..lol. in the end it was a good fit because I loved traveling the world and serving my country. Soon I'll turn one of these rms into a" Around the World in 80days theme"

I noticed and you will too... I love themes. It help's me to get moving in a good direction- I might chance the path, yet it gets me started.

I am an independence baby, that's right born on the 4th of July, 76 of all the yrs. so one can imagine wht type of person I am :) Always on the go- This time the water really pulled me in...it"s so calming and I am so happy to have relocated here, I can't imagine being anywhere else (unless on an island) haha... being only 7mins away from the waterfront, truly has it's advantages.

I have a love for nature, 4sure...anything goes I really love trees right now, and butterfly's are a most. I am a dog lover so anything that has to do with dogs, I'm all in. I will be planting my garden soon, flowers and herbs so gotta love them. I really love anything vintage, I'm offten told I have an ole soul- I have a small collection of vintage jewelry, not to mention my wedding had a 1920's theme... Now I can't forget my yard sales, thift stores or even my clearance bins... I love those hidden treasures that are looked over by the naked eye.

In the end it's all about family for me. I love trying to get everyone together (impossible) yet, I try to atleast do something- I've marked every Friday nite Movie nite and the one night you can sleep where ever you want in the house night...almost anywhere u want ( u know kids).

Almost forgot, did I tell you I love to talk...I'm the best at surprises and the best at keeping a good secret!

I really love texture/3D pieces of work. Anything handrawn pulls me in and I'm alway taking a pic of something,someone or even myself- Ever met a person that carried a camera everywhere they went....Hello, nice to met cha:).
