Dear Friends,
I've been taking the last few days to figure out this blog before sending it to my friends. I'm learning as I go along, so please forgive me if things aren't perfect. Suggestions are gladly welcome. This blog is for us to share ideas and information about art, culture, politics, entrepreneurship or whatever that's on our hearts and minds. There are no rules except to be positive. We can challenge and express anger or even outrage, but let's do so respectfully and with an intent to educate.
I love art in all of it's form. It's functional, its a means to communicate and educate; art enriches our lives with beauty and provokes different ways of thinking. Art nourishes our soul and can be used to earn a living. Art makes us feel good and gives us hope for the future. Thank God for art!
This year I'm challenging my self to be an artist. As a youngster I was terrible in art class and took as few as possible. I never learned to make anything well. Now, I want to make things. I'm learning how to crochet and to silk screen scarves. I intend to learn how to make a quilt. It's unfortunate that many of us no longer are able to do the arts and crafts of our ancestors.
Please read my earlier postings, so if things seem out of order it's because I'm just now sending it out. Remember I'm learning and thanks for your patience and for joining this forum.
Best wishes,
Sheila
