Ages since I have been here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many sales, paintings, too many "to do's". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So many have asked <i>where did I go</i>,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
did I stop painting, disappear into thin air?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ah, not quite. (Wishful thinking)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been using Face Book </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as my main venue to show my latest work...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can be lazy like that. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I thought I should at least showcase </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
some pictures of my work once in awhile,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
blab on about some new find,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
discuss odds and ends </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and mostly be inspired by YOU. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I miss the creativity and<span style="font-size: large;"> <b><span style="color: cyan;">fun</span></b></span>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here in pictures is what I have been up to these days, </div>

I felt remiss.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Needed to push myself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Felt old and worn out. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Did not want to paint.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am helping my Mom move into her new home in Michigan next week. I look forward to feeling the Fall season a bit and taking a break. The cider mill is a must in Michigan. I hope to do some good picking too!! I will be back with more creations, I am sure sooner than later.<br />
<br />
I am hoping to spend some good creative time, exploring my art as I turn the big 5-0 in a few weeks. My how life can move so fast and before you know it, there you are. I so remember the days when I never thought I would be "that old".<br />
<br />
Reflecting on one's life and the passions that drive us, is a gift. For me it has always been those I love dearly, my husband, my children, my family and friends. Thanks to all they do to make me who I am and give me the inspiration, and sometimes the nudge, to create and be the best I can.<br />
<br />
<strong><br />
</strong> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.</span><br />

<li><div style="text-align: left;">Stain. I use a dark walnut stain.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">Dry brush with AS Country grey in a random pattern.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">Sand again, leaving paint in different places.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">Stain again and wipe off.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">Wax with AS clear wax for protection and even better patina.</div></li>

</tbody></table> Each year we can't wait for our time here, in our Maine. Full of lovely beach fun, family laughter and breezy evenings on the screened porch.Cousins become one, nestled in their beds, hanging out, creating moments to remember forever. They did not have to share this room, they WANTED to be together.<br />
<br />
Tell me what is "your Maine"? On a lake, in the mountains, sipping tea on your own porch? So...<br />
