I am an Air Force brat, a self-taught artist, and a part-time mom these days. I work out my artistic demons by making stuff and trying to find the humor when things go wrong. I have a spouse, two grown kids and cats that barf and bring horrible things into the house, so things do go wrong. My youngest is in college and only home during breaks, so I'm almost an empty nester, alone more than not and trying to figure out this new stage of life. Time to make a mess.

My Inner Critic is Yelling
Oh double ugh! I look at what I do and wonder about why I do it, and think and think and criticize and think some more. I have to take ownership of squashing the fun of being creative. Next, I have to figure out how to knock it off. I should remember to play, whether it's playing with paint or clay or the sewing machine. Maybe I can find a good old fashioned coloring book. That takes the pressure off.
