Today I want to share with you my creative space. I was taking watercolor classes when I realize that I wasn't painting that much at home because every time that I want to work on a project I had to take out all the materials from my bag, put them on my kitchen table, prepare the space with placemats ( I didn't want to ruin my table) and the paint for a while and of course clean up later. I was wasting to much time, precious time, that I could use painting. For that reason, several months later when I started with acrylic classes I said to myself that was time to find a better space to create so I looked around the breakfast area and found the perfect spot for a desk. I went to a second hand store and bought a beautiful shabby chic desk that goes very well with my decor ( very important for me). I love this area of my house because is very bright, I can see outside and is a serene and beautiful space. Now I have everything ready : brushes, paint, etc. waiting for me. Every time that I want to create I just sit down and let my imagination fly.

I am taking little steps every day, as Kelly Rae said in her e-course, so I can reach my goals. So far I can say that I'm very proud of myself because I have accomplished some of them: start a blog and organize materials and "studio" that is actually a desk in a corner of my breakfast ( photos coming soon). For now I just want to enjoy my time alone.
Back to School
My kids went back to school this week so I have mixed feelings about it. I'm happy for them (and for me too) but I'm going to miss them a lot. We had a great (and busy) summer: family visits, niece wedding, summer camps, play dates, trips, baseball, etc. So now that we are starting with the school routine it's time for me to, also, start working on my paintings ( I did not paint in the summer) and the creative business.

Well, as all you know posting is something new for me, I'm learning everyday. Today, I am having "technical " problems so this post is not in order. Sorry for the confusion, I hope you get the idea.
This is how I decided to display my Kelly's paintings in my house so I can enjoy them from my kitchen everyday. Love it!

About a year ago...
About a year ago, I went to a local gift store and bought myself a beautiful painting ( print on canvas) that capture my attention and heart, the tittle: "LOVE". Several months later, I bought a book, the tittle: "Taking Flight" and then came to my mind the beautiful canvas that I had buy... Could be the same artist? Honestly, I did not remember her name at that moment, so I went home and look the back of the picture "Yes is the same girl" I said to myself. So from that moment, I started to search for her on line: Kelly Rae Roberts. She is such an inspiration for me, her art, her words, her soul.... amazing!
Now, I'm taking Kelly's e-course "Flying Lessons" and I'm learning so much and making great friends and most important I'm doing!!!!
