The Albanian Villa

I am relatively new to the world of blogging community. So bare with my first attempt into this ever evolving culture. I am creating this blog to share my creativity with anyone who is interested. I have learned throughout the years that no one is going to see my art unless I actually give it exposure. I dabble in art on many levels. I write childrens stories, and I am currently involved with my first venture into the world of self publishing. I also write poetry, lyrics and songs, and I dabble in painting and other crafts. I am a mother of identical twin boys and they are my inspiration for just about every breath that I take. I would like to make my latest painting the star of my first blog. It is titled The Albanian Villa.

I did this painting as a Christmas gift for a friend. She is from Albania and I wanted to give her something that would remind her of home. The excitement that she showed when she opened it and the tears in her eyes when she thanked me for the gift was worth more than money. I am very glad that she was so pleased.
