eBay My World: roadtripjournal( 176)

I am a full time professional artist working in both acrylic and oil. My work varies from abstract to modern impressionism, usually landscapes. My partner and I travel the country moving quite often, always looking for new landscapes to paint.

40's clothing, interesting arty scarves, nature inspired vintage jewelry and vintage bird theme stuff.

My partner and I (also a painter) travel around quite a bit. We have lived on Nantucket Island, Martha's Vineyard, Key West, Maui and currently we are in Santa Fe, NM. This Spring we will be hitting the road for a two year road trip in an Airtsream Travel Trailer. We will be painting on location all over the country, North and South...East and West.

I have been a waitress and a bartender, an administrative assistant and a sandwich maker, I was counter help at a junk yard and I have sold costumes and been a pirate maiden (whatever THAT even is!?) at a Pirate Festival, I have made and sold jewelry and vintage clothes, The list of weird random jobs goes on and on... all along the way I have pursued my artwork whether is was painting, beading, writing or photography. At this point I am working with my art full time and hope to continue to do so for a long while.
