the diamond that started it all

COME IN!

welcome to my blog...my mission is to give you a glimps of my life as a mother, wife, decorator, painter, and active woman. my inspiration comes from traveling, my education, and my family and friends. i have to admit upfront, however, that my "education" does not include a background in english, so please be patient with my grammar and spelling. i am, however, happy to share on this blog what i learn in my daily life from painting and decorating. here you will also find a real account of my struggles, my experiences, and my many reasons to rejoice. april, or the month of the diamond, is when my first and only daughter, mollie, was born. she is the reason i am a joyful mother, wife, and person today. i appreciate your time, and thank you in advance for your advice. perhaps one day you will be reading from my website but for now this homemade blog will do:-)
love, laura

attempt at abstract


one thing i have learned while being in limbo at this stage of life is that chaos is life.  i have always been structured as a person and i am embracing a whole new outlook.  this state to state move, searching for a new home for our family, and selling our first home has been one of the best times of my life.  the reason being, i have learned more in this short amount of time about who i am as an artist, how important family is, and prayer.  i have learned to pray for God's will and not what i think will make me/us happy. every decision made has been so smooth knowing that i am not in control and i am so thankful.  that my friend is the key to my joyful spirit!

i conclude that the abstract painting is a dipiction of beauty and freedom.
