Time Alone. 

When our kids were growing up I never had time for myself but now that they have flown the nest I do, although I miss them. So finally I have time for myself.  I write in my daughter’s room and I paint in my other daughter’s room.  But sometimes I write or paint outdoors.  I love nature so I capture it through my five senses.

I have written poems on the beach and in the woods.  I listen to the wind, the waves, bird songs, spring peepers.  I paint the colors of reeds and wild flowers and the sand dunes.  I love living in West Michigan. When I lived in East Lansing there was not much to inspire although I did go on Campus to draw and paint as a teen. Not much there.  I have always loved to write and to paint.  I remember writing my first poem at age seven.

I love to share what I have written so I enjoy Memory Writers at 4 Pointes.

I love to paint with others so I go to painting classes at 4 Pointes.
