People I care about: Steve

The hardest part of blogging is figuring out what to tell you. I have to say that I'm not the most exciting person every day. Yes, if you just meet me, I can be pretty exciting, but once you hear from me every day, I think it would get pretty old. Especially if I'm doing a monologue.

So I'm starting a series (at least I think it will be a series): People I Care About. I'm not saying People in my Life, because some of these people have moved on, but they're still in my thoughts and heart. And please don't assume that these people are the ONLY people I care about. If I did that, we would never hear about anything else!

Today I'm going to tell you about Steve. He was my roomate in college, and he's hilarious. He's a little boy stuck in a man's body, and yet he can be very profound, especially in his art. I love so much of his work, I have trouble choosing, but here's a fun one to entice you.

Yay, Polish!

I polished my table today. Yay. It would have been an awesome thing to do, except that I was intending to polish beads... I bumped the polish bottle, and suddenly I was polishing the table, a pen, my camera, and... possibly my friend's sewing machine... oops.

...But check out that nice, shiny table!

Rebirth!

I think I start all of these out with an apology. I don't like that I ignore this, and I'm going to try to do something about it. I read an article the other day (on Etsy, by the way-- it's an excellent resource!) and it said that I shouldn't be an artist with a blog, I should be a blogger who is an artist. Good advice. And you're probably not interested in just me and my art... although, of course I'm the entire reason you're here (note my humble self-importance). I'm going to try to write about everything- my thoughts, my life, the things I think about... and I'll try to make it un-self-absorbed.



So I'm going to try to be a blogger. I'll try to tell you about the world as I see it, and I'll try to keep it out of the realm of Too Much Information. A fore-warning, though, my art and my views are very close to my beliefs, and the things that happen to me... If you feel you're learning too much, please turn the page- I don't want you to feel that I've covered you in (as my husband puts it) "verbal diarrhea!"
