I Am An Artist



For many years she kept her addiction a secret. She was afraid that if anyone knew her true identity they would laugh. So she would paint, sew, and create in the small dusty garage that was her studio. Never proclaiming what she knew was true. But after many years of silence she decided to set her dream in motion. She took her first step. A sweet little e-course where she earned her wings (shout out to "K Rae"). Now every morning she looks in the mirror and says, "Hi. My name is Kandi and I AM AN ARTIST.

Weightless-ACEO


I remember being pregnant and feeling larger than life, especially towards the end. I gained 65 pounds during my first pregnancy. The water was the only place where I could feel like my old self.

Weightless is a ACEO with a crackle finish. She will be for sale tomorrow in my etsy store.

A few works in progress

For the last few weeks I have been painting and drawing and sculpting but not finishing any one thing. I think I'm going backwards in my progress.


Meet armless Alice. She's about 4 inches tall and will be quite nice if I ever give her arms.

Knee Deep




I am knee deep in Kelly Rae Robert's fabulous e-course and all the self psychoanalysis that comes with it.
All I can say for sure is that before this course, my journey into the art world and trying to make a business out of it has been so much like high school. "Will they like me?","Am I good enough?", "Will I ever fit in?". Maybe. Maybe not.

The worst that can happen is nothing.

Wish me luck !
