About Me

My photo
I LOVE to design and to paint whimsical items that will put a smile on your face. Each day I share my simple life with you as I try to encourage, to inspire and sometimes JUST to make you smile as I recount my life growing up on a dairy farm! I've never had many material items in my life, BUT I have been blessed beyond words with love and encouragement from WONDERFUL Parents who instilled in me WHAT was important. I have had EVERYTHING that I needed and WAY too much of what I wanted. I am slowly learning to be a better person each day through my interactions with my friends on Facebook. Some day I hope to be as good as people seem to THINK I am! I am BLESSED! Welcome to my little corner of the world...Please stop by and visit often!

Art Challenge Day 4, Friday, January 30, 2015



This was Day 4 of the Art Challenge.  I was NOT going to finish this challenge because of the RUDEST comment that I saw on a fellow artist’s posting by the person who “supposedly” started this challenge saying that it SURE had morphed into something else than what SHE intended it to be...

 WELL, I PERSONALLY am thankful that things MORPH and that people see a GREATER GOOD for inspirations and how simple IDEAS can become SO MUCH MORE than we originally can fathom by OURSELVES…

I am THANKFUL for ALL who have taken the time to SHARE their ART…no matter WHAT type of ART it is~~thread, oil, acrylic, designer, painter, photographer, mixed-media…For you see, the MOMENT any of us ATTEMPTS to put OURSELVES above someone else, THEN YOU WILL ALWAYS become a failure…It is ONLY through SHARING and SUPPORTING each other that we become ARTISTS…

GOD is the MASTER CREATOR. No matter how beautifully we paint, WE ALL are mere imitators of the MASTER…NONE of us can create something that is NEW because GOD has it all covered, BUT what he has done, is to give us a DESIRE to improve…to DEVELOP the skills He has planted into our lives…whether we create or admire ART, we ALL play a part in the appreciation and the furtherance of ART, so Today, I took my friends advice and decided NOT to let ONE MEAN-SPIRITED WOMAN ruin the JOY of SHARING the gifts that I have and that are DIFFERENT from any one else because we are ALL UNIQUE BUT we are FEARFULLY and WONDERFULLY made…

I am THANKFUL for those who have inspired me to work harder, paint longer and delve deeper into my creativity in WHATEVER form it appears on a surface! 

THANK you GOD for being MY MASTER inspiration and for giving me the GIFT of ART...it is to GOD that I give ALL GLORY and HONOR for the gifts he has bestowed on me and it is my prayer that I will be SUPPORTIVE and that I will be an ENCOURAGER for those who work diligently to get their art noticed…we ALL need each other and we have NO room for pettiness or selfishness…

SO since I am on my SOAPBOX (again…sigh), I guess it is ONLY fitting that I share a pattern that I designed for painting on SOAP! LOL (yeah…I DARE anyone to come up with a BETTER transition than THAT one…BWAH…see there I go, patting myself on the back…sigh). 



Next, is a simple sign designed as a reflection of what I believe…



and the last just about sums up my faith…we are the sheep of HIS pasture and we should LOOK UP for guidance, no…we need to look in our hearts and ASK, BELIEVE and we WILL receive…



I design QUICK and EASY designs in hopes that EVERYONE who wishes to paint can see that THEY CAN...I use BRIGHT colors and HAPPY faces because life is hard enough and I WANT to be HAPPY and to spread CHEER...

Be a SUPPORTER of Art...Be an ENCOURAGER of ART...

Be the BEST YOU that YOU can BE...Blessings to YOU...~charlotte♥
