Blue Jungle is a new painting in Flower Mound Studio, the end of a birthday weekend. If someone had told me when I was 18 that I would be a serious artist (at least my intentions are serious!) by the time I turned 50, I probably would not have been a bit surprised. I was pretty sure I wanted to be an artist even at that early age, but my parents talked me out of it. They told me if I were an artist I would starve, and I really think they believed they were doing me favor by telling me this. So I took their advice and chose another career. I became a journalist. (Journalists out there, I hear you laughing....) The good news is my journalism career does give me the time I need to have two full time jobs, and the second one, being an artist, makes it all worthwhile. Someday that will be the only hat I wear, but for now, the day job sure helps pay for the art supplies!
