1/18/11: welcome to the blog!

I seem to have lost my knack for journaling so this may be a bit of a rough start.  Bear with me. 

There was a time when I was a flourishing artist...then life got in the way.  Now I'm trying to get ahold of that artist again, trying to create things that please both myself as well as the public.  So far, it's been an unfocused journey.  I started with a lot of reading to kick start the imagination, then I moved on to writing (a piece or 2 is posted somewhere on an additional blog), then moved into music, then photography/drawing/painting etc...  the favorite blend so far has been music and painting/drawing/photography. 

I am finding that what I prefer, the general public does not prefer (and I am basing this on the "views" portion of my Etsy page) and what I feel is not that great the general public seems to love.  My way of thinking and perception has always been a little different haha.
 
I am also finding that I would like to have a more decent camera for photographs.  I love the digital camera I have now for everyday pictures and it's good for things I can stage but it can only go so far.  Back in the day when I was taking photography classes, I fell in love with my manual pentax camera.  Now there are even more camera options...and I've got my eye on the Nikon D5000.  It's a few dollar signs that I'm lacking right now though.  Hoping within the next few months I'll be able to purchase one.

So this first post will be short and sweet...just a brief intro. 

Please check out my Etsy page: www.etsy.com/shop/lovlybelladoll.  Would love to get some feedback and ideas. :)

As always, thanks for looking!
