Stefani

Everybody needs a Stefani in their life. A friend who is supportive, loving and always with the right words. Stefani is also an artist who like myself has been creating for many years. Her work is wonderful and good. Yes, there is a difference. Wonderful attracts you, it pulls you into a piece to have a closer look. Good is what you find once you are lured in. Wonderment can fade - the goodness of a piece keeps you coming back for more, it inspires you, you never tire of it.

Earlier this week Stefani read my blog for the first time. I was honored that she loved it and my work. She did hesitantly suggest one change. When reading my profile she recommended that I put artist first on my list. She said - rightfully so - that I was an artist before I was a wife or mother. I love my husand and children and they do get a lot of my attention but, I do feel the need to focus even more on my art. This is what I have always felt was my purpose for life, long before a husband or children were a thought. Thanks Stefani.
