I do remember being courageous as a child, and quite happy to talk to anyone. ☺️🛥⚓️.   My nautical artwork with this affirmation and others, are in the processContinue reading “I’m Courageous”

Getting the tools out to create a new patio or a graphic design using Illustrator keeps us very busy. Looking through our photos, I believe we are blessed with a supportive family, a good work ethic, and the creative skills that make our lives more interesting and sweet. Some sarcasm is fun too.

Makes Me Smile

Is there one word to describe feeling happy and sad at the same time? The last day of August brings to mind how very short the Summer season is in Michigan.
