Violet's Art Blog
http://violetsartblog.blogspot.com/
I am a professional studio artist from New London, MN. I am also a mother of two teens and a wife of a pastor.
I stay pretty busy and am many times pulled in quite a few different directions. It seems to me having a blog is just one more thing to do, but I am hoping it will help me to be accountable in getting at least one painting completed every week. I would love to do the 'painting a day' kind of blog, but know at this point in time that is a bit too ambitious.
I have started Whimsical Daydreamin' News and will post that and other info from time to time.
