"Hello Everyone Welcome!"

I love to scrap and make cards. I also paint in oil, pastel, and watercolor. Art in some form has always been a part of my life since I was coloring in a coloring book and playing with play dough. Thanks to Mom we always had some kind of dough to play with, mostly homemade. My 3 brothers and I loved it! In the 5th grade I had a teacher who liked art and opened up crafts to me. Then at an action an oil painting kit was in a box of things my Dad wanted. Oh how I loved it! Talking about being happy! My first oil painting in the 8th grade with Mrs. Hughes was of a flamingo. Idid a Painted Bunting-bird in the 9th grade. My folks got a divorce then and I stopped drawing and painting. Divorces do hurt kids! I started babysitting when 16 years old and started drawing and doing crafts with the children I kept. it brought me great joy. I met a wonderful man in 1995 and married him in 1996. He encouraged me to take painting lessons. Thanks Lloyd for a wonderful gift. In 1999 my husband died. I still miss him. I started scrapbooking and card making in 2003. I have learned a lot but know there is much, much more out there to learn. every day I learn something new. Thanks to all who have taught me along the way wether you know it or not. Edwina Brown
