Why "Renaissance Woman"?

Hi!

I'm back!  Miss me?  :-)

You may be wondering why I call my blog "Renaissance Woman."  Well, it's simple really.  I'm interested in a lot of things.  I know a little bit about a lot of things (unless I'm having a bad day and then I can't remember sh*t).  And after talking with a good friend and mentor of mine, Beth, about all of these things one day she said, "You're quite the Renaissance Woman, aren't you?"  I liked that.  A lot.  So the name stuck in my head.  I knew I would find a use for it some day.

Well, some day is here.  I am arting away and doing so under my "Renaissance Woman" name.  I'm loving it!

So, what do I art (where for "art" thou [or me]?)?  Here's a few samples:

I crochet:

I cross stitch:

But the best stuff is the stuff I make up myself:

In the coming posts, I'll talk about these fun things that are already done, as well as what I am working on now.  I'll show you some techniques I'm trying, things that work and things that don't.

Please be patient with me as I work on my photography skills throughout my posts.  I'm learning that, too, as I go along!

Happy Days (of course they are happy...when I'm "arting" at least!)!!
