I'm supposed to have a small artful giveaway to 'someone' who also plays along in this party! I am donating this painting that is 8x10. It is collage'd with paper..then painted. I use a variety of paints, watercolor and acrylics..then some charcoal..and then of course..my drawings for the main images! I like to draw randomly in a drawing book..so I have a small collection..I use those as inspiration. Along with the pkg I have an altered notebook done with collage and image by Lisa's Altered Arts. The 3rd item in the pkg is a bottle cap necklace..which has one of my paintings as the focal point. I hope you like my 'giveaway'..
Now about "ME"..I am Amy..I give every moment and try to be the BEST mom ever to my 4 children..Married for 15yrs! I love to volunteer in my spare time. I am a Girl Scout leader to 12 girls..it is my 5th year doing so and I LOVE IT! I have done so many fun things thru girl scouting that I never thought I'd do. I am also a driver to many..we only have one vehicle..and since I work parttime..I drive everyone where they need to go! Including my 4 very outgoing sporty children..whom are devoted to the sport of baseball. Now for my paying job: I work parttime in foodservice at an insurance company. But wait..that is not all..that does not DEFINE ME!!!
What defines me..is my soul and spirit!! I try to show my spirit thru my art..oh and a bit of laughter! I love to laugh..laugh til hearts content. Being funny and art are utmost important to me and who I am.
I always have chewing gum or mints in my purse..I believe oral freshness is the key to a good smile!
I love being blonde..the blonder the better! and short hair to..never have I had long hair..don't know..doesn't fit my style or face or something.
I am an avid lover of the outdoors. I walk 45mins a day with our dog Harley..then hop on my Trek for a quick bike ride around my neighborhood for about 20mins a day.
Thank you for visiting me here at my blog! I hope you have enjoyed getting to know a tiny bit more about me and also see some of my artful'ness!

ReplyDeleteHi amy!
ReplyDeleteI'm alwayyysss super happy to meet another amy!
(because we have the best name, that's why)
i really like your post - i like that you let us get to know who you are. I feel like you are capturing the spirit of what this blog hop is about.
Anywyayayayay. I used to have blonde hair - and i loved it. Loved it. but it's no longer blonde and i'm afraid to dye my dreads back to blonde because i hear it can damage them and the bleach may Snap Them Right Off.
can you imagine?
okay. really. i am very happy to have met you.
xxa
p.s. i'm sometimes the driver in this house too, but GUESS WHAT? my daughter just got her license so guess who will be driving her brother around now??
Hello Amy!

ReplyDeleteSO happy to see you here - and I love your post! Okay, you do a lot with one car! We are the same way - we've been a one car family for almost a year now. Yes, sometimes less convenient, but it does work. I can only imagine how busy you must be with 4 though. And the baby is graduating first grade now right? Kendra is on her way to Summer - and second grade too.
Thank you for your sweet comment and for the chance to have a piece of YOU in my home.
Here's my finger's crossed!
