Hello. I am a joyful wife and mother of three, just turned loose the last of my little chicks, and getting ready to spread my own writing wings. Twenty-six years ago I earned a B.A. in English because my heart's desire was to write. Since that time I've worked as a teacher, musician, cleaning lady, tax professional, and artist, but never as a writer. In the past year, several friends have encouraged me to pick up the baton and run with it. By creating this blog, I took the first baby step toward becoming a published author. The journey will likely be longer than I can imagine, but it has finally begun, and that's all that matters.

It's brainstorming time again. I've been separating, sorting, and cleaning more piano pieces, and now to decide what to do with them.... . . #piano #pianoart #pianoartist #wip #pianodecor #pianolove #pianostudio #musician #musicislife #musicandarts #musiclover #pianolife #repurposed #recycledpiano #etsysellers #etsy #etsyshopowner #etsyhandmade #etsysellersofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #encoreoldpianos #handmade #makers #usamakers #createdtocreate #handmadebusiness #handmadeshop #mycreativebiz #creativelifehappylife #creativeprocess

This piece shipped to its Forever Home last week. I've made "Middle C" dozens of times. What's special about this one? I'm glad you asked. This one was made from the pieces of two pianos, with genuine ivory keys and exactly 14 pieces. Its purpose is to commemorate a couple's 14th "ivory" anniversary. It is also the last one of its kind that I'll be able to make until I come across another piano bearing ivory keys. . . . #piano #pianoart #pianoartist #pianogifts #pianist #pianolove #musician #letstalkmusic #musicislife #musicteachers #performers #musiclover #repurposed #musicandarts #pianolife #musicmaker #etsysellers #etsy #iloveetsy #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyseller #etsyshopowner #etsyhandmade #etsygifts #floridaartist #miltonartists #14thanniversary #ivoryanniversary #weddinganniversary

Today I tried my hand at black and white, on a black primed canvas. It's also a style I've never tried before. It was fun, though it's far from perfect. I didn't have the brush she used, so I didn't get the same results. . Have you painted in black and white? Did you like it? . . . #paintpracticerepeat #abstractpainting #fantasyart #blackandwhite #acrylicpainting #paintingstudy #youtube #joniyoungart #artistsoninstagram #artistlife #artist #createdtocreate #handmadeart

Day 4 of acrylic studies. This one is Wow Art's "Daily Challenge #1: How to paint a fantasy sky." Going light on the paint does not prevent the canvas paper from bubbling, it just keeps me from being able to distribute the colors the way I'd like. Even so, I had fun with this one. . . #paintpracticerepeat #abstractpainting #abstractart #acrylicpainting #paintingstudy #youtube #wowart #fantasyart #nightskypainting #skyscape #landscapepainting
