I run a board and care home for chronically mentally ill. I have done one form or another of art work all my life. I have worked with a variety of media including oils & acrylics,stained glass, fabric and wood. I have never made my living as an artist. I love the work I am doing and am not looking to replace it, but developing some supplemental income would be nice.
Just in the last two years, I have started working with digital images and it has opened up a whole new world for me.
To view more of my work, you may go to one of my six blogs. I use them in combination as a website. The first one is my "parent blog" from which the others may be linked and which contains more contact info, ordering procedures and background.

This second one is devoted to mandala designs.

This third one is a features blog.

My newest one is a separate line of products on the Cactus Hugger theme.

The last two are tutorial sites in which I take the viewer through the process of creating the mandala designs.

Getting encouragement and validation for what I do is welcome, but I come to this site for technical help as well. There are a lot of accomplished artists in this community and I am always looking to improve, so any suggestions anyone may have as to how I can do better will be appreciated. |
