I used to sketch when I was in my teens and I would’ve loved to pursue fine arts in college… I’m definitely a dabbler in the arts but it’s amazing to see works of so many talented artists!

Having rediscovered the joy of painting aged 39 (after a 26 year break), I am so thrilled to find a creative outlet so removed from the reality of being a SAHM with 3 children under 6. I can be *free* with it. There are no rules or limitations. It’s reminded me that I can do whatever I want. J x

Mimi commented on December 9th, 2010 at 10:44 amArt is everywhere,it is in everything we do in our lives! As a family we cherish all sorts of works of art: our tea or coffee cups, hand blown wine glasses and decorative pieces, water colour paintings, pottery pieces, quilts, wooden sculptures… I could go on, but you must get the picture.

What role does art play in my life?
Art IS my life. I feel passionate enough about it to advocate it to the masses. I believe every human being has creative energy that have to unleash, we’re born to create. Your medium may not be traditional art, maybe you’re meant to make equations and theories- but that’s your art. I feel that problems in life stem from not unleashing your creativity. That’s my feelings on the role of art in my life and other’s lifes
My favorite pieces in this artists shop are: adrift, cityscape, farmer’s market, and farm

Art had always been a huge part of my life. I feel so alive when I am creating/drawing! I can’t imagine a life without art.

I love the cityscape, children’s row of houses and the farm prints the most. Very interesting work!
Art has always played a big part in my life. As a child, I took regular trips to local art galleries and spent many Saturdays taking art classes. I even taught art classes to children while I was in University.
Kiddlebug commented on December 10th, 2010 at 9:37 pmI love birds, so I especially love all the bird prints such as the Dahlia with Pine Leaf Pattern. Thanks!

Leslie commented on December 15th, 2010 at 5:51 pmArt inspires me. I can’t draw a straight line, but I admire those who can, so I use other artists’ creativity to inspire me to use my own talents to create something special.
