I'm talking now
It's been a long time. A decade from my original picture. I'm still here!I am finally back. It's not been an easy time, to say the least. I came to check on my website, mainly to see if it still exists. I'm thinking because people are still viewing my work. i still have an existing account with Fine Art America with images i haven't yet added to for sale in prints. They have added items that can be printed onto. I would like to add them to my account. I need to do some changes on both my sites. If you haven't seem them, I have added a new page with new artworks. I still have editing to do on it. I was anxious to share them to the public.
My time away had more to do with my health. I wad finally feeling well. Until the recent camp fires, here in California. I had to take antibiotics after developing an irritating cough and wheeze. I have to use oxygen at times. I'm doing better. I had surgery in June of this year and that was the turn around that I needed towards better health and wellbeing. I face at least one more surgery in the future, maybe 2, but they aren't life threatening, just necessary. I've battled with skin problems. Eczema, cellulitis for years. I developed a large mass of dead tissue in my abdomen that had to be removed. I had to have a device called a V.A.C. It draws out the infectious fluids until the wound closes and leaves a scar. That was a long battle that required home nursing and wound care. I'm still on wound care. It's fir a stubborn cist that developed below my knee. Well! I didn't want to go into too much detail but without some why bother saying anything at all? I've been gone so long that I felt a need to explain. With disability comes health problems, that's just the way it us for many of us. I don't like complaining, that doesn't help. I think it's okay to share a little. I hope to encourage others who have a disability. I'm sure there are others that have dreams and hope to accomplish them. I'm a self taught Artist! I also happen to be disabled, which means I can no longer walk. I use to walk, many years ago, but through the years I slowly lost that ability. One thing I haven't lost is my ability to create with my best hand. I've loved drawing, water coloring, too all of my life. Now, I want to sell my work. I have sold pieces here and there. I'm spreading my wings, again, to sell even more. I hope everyone that hasn't given up on me aren't disappointed with the graphite drawings I've shared. To All, Love and Peace.
