thanks for the good words . . .

You guys are fun! Really you are! And the encouragement you give me is unbelievable and amazing {even though I'm not a hero!} And that is why I think it is time to finally share my first piece of art. Well, I should say my first painting - I wouldn't necessarily call it "art" . . . . and when you see - uhmm, well,. . . . you will know what I mean! I'm going to do this post to give you guys encouragement. To pump you up. To tell you that you can do it. Whatever it is you want to do. In the post I will try to dump in some sneaky peekies - because I know so many of you are sitting at the edge of your seat hoping TODAY is going to be the big day you see YOURS! Now, some of you will be disappointed - because I can assure you that I have more orders than peekies {currently} BUT I'm working on it! I promise!


But I'm ready to do this - as hard is it will be to show how bad it really started! I'm ready. It will probably be a long post, so I will start on it shortly - but be expecting it next . . . .

so we will meet here - soon . . . . for "the good, the bad and the ugly!" Yes, I do think that will be the title of the post.

Can't wait! I've thrown out quite a few things (or recycled them if possible)in the past and still do occasionally.

I have LOTS of pieces that I sit and look at, then say, "What was I thinking?" We gotta start somewhere! Thanks for sharing!

I think it is from our first attempts that we learn the most and they are the ones that motivate us to keep on trying.

Has anyone ever told you you were a tease??? :)

You crack me up. :)

Well, I've already seen "the one that started it all" and it is NOT ugly! You can put me in the later category---you KNOW which one---you KNOW what I want to see. :-) Classy, whimsy, girly yet coordinating x 2. Can't wait...

I'm sure your "worst" is 1000 x better than my best! You are just too hard on yourself!

:o)

You are such a good artist but you are even more of a tease.

do you sit at home thinking, I wonder how many times I can make these women come back to my site in just one day... oh, maybe if I promise my first painting... ding, 56 more hits... maybe if I promise sneaky peeks... man alive, 87 more hits?!?!
(Its not like this is my 7th visit to your site in 2 days or anything like that, I promise)
:o)

***[Do you] always feel like somebody's watchin' [you]***

Sneaky Peaky? Come on. You can do it. Now that I KNOW you are working on my paintings I am stalking like like a mad woman. :-)

I've tried emailing you now from TWO separate accounts about the giveaway for Kayleigh. It won't go through! :( Could you email me at prayingforkayleigh(at)live(dot)com? Thanks!! I'm trying to get this together by Sunday. :)

This is torture! I can't wait to see your first piece (I'm sure it is great) and the sneak peaks!!

There are so many instances, where my "first's!" are an embrassement.

But now i feel they have not improved so much,

Just feel that being myself, is good enough for me!
Trying to get along with the minimal regrets!

Does this make any sense?
Anyway just keep at it!
