About Me

My photo
Paintdancer
Once upon a time I danced. As the Artistic Director of a very successful regional ballet company, I once directed dozens of dancers through scores of musical steps and lovely choreographed ballet performances. Today, I perform a very different kind of adagio as I direct dozens of tubes of paint and brushes and a jar of mucky turpentine through the steps required to create that very special painting that will hopefully touch someone in a special way. This blog records a history of my struggles as an emerging artist that took a road less traveled to achieve her lifelong dream of becoming a visual artist. Welcome friends, to my daily Paint Dance.***All art, poems and writings on this blog are copyright of the author/artist and may not be used or reproduced in any form without express WRITTEN permission from this blog's author.***
