All that is you....I plunked those words down several years ago when I was going through some pretty tough emotional times. And guess what? I made it though with a stronger sense of faith and self confidence in who I am. The ups and the downs of life... An amazing journey... This week starting Monday I am a guest artist on CRESCENDOH.
Please wander over and read the article that I wrote for ART SAVES. The piece I wrote was not easy for me to write and truly comes from my heart and soul. I would so love to hear your thoughts and words, kindly drop me your comments when you finish reading my story...
much love

I wore the beautiful white gold watch yesterday to my (step) grand daughter's bridal shower. It went so well with a pretty white gold and amethyst bracelet my dearest Don got for me while on a business trip to Korea years ago.
The white and dark purple lilacs are in bloom as we welcome the month of May. The very same month I fell in love for the first time so many years ago.
I'm learning that I can choose to allow the pain I've experienced to soften me or harden me. The pain can form us into more beautiful pottery as we allow the Potter to do His work. You are becoming more and more beautiful as you allow Him to heal your broken heart. Your art brings healing and joy to us! Thank you for sharing. :o)
Hi Lisa,
I just finished reading your story and I see you as such a strong, courageous woman. I'm sorry you had to go through that pain. It's not fair to have such a burden, or secret to have to carry. I'm very happy for you to have let it out and maybe your story will help others who have gone through the same thing. I do believe that you can have your "innocence" back. I think when we are able to let go and heal, that it will come back to us, and we can look at the world with fresh eyes once again. Lots of love to you. I look at my Lisa artwork every day and love it!
Love,
Kelly
Hi Lisa,
I just read your story...
My experience is similar, over twenty years ago. Healing takes time and healing comes in many forms, I am still healing.
I want you to know that, Your art makes me smile.
And Thank you for being you.

Love your work!

Lisa, this is a powerful story. Courageous comes to mind in your telling of your experience and your pain. I am currently healing from the painful experiences of the past and using my love of art to express those emotions. Thank you for sharing, for making yourself so real to others.
I love the work you do!

Read your story. I wonder if as women we keep guilt inside that we don't deserve more than men? Date rape can happen so easily. It can even be from a moment of indecision taken advantage of. I am glad you are able to work through your feelings on it now.
On happier thought... absolutely adore your work. First spotted you in a store in Bridgeport Villiage and later went back with a camera to snap your name and a couple pieces of work so I could hunt you out on the web and enjoy looking at more. If I wanted to get messy and do my art on more than the computer, your style of work would totally be my inspiration!
And here is where you find me...

Just read your story, do not feel any shame in what happened. Think that maybe because of what happened you are what you are today a strong beautiful very talented lady, Go forward and think only good things of yourself, feel pity for the person who feels the only way in life is to commit pain and misery on people. Anger only eats away at you, move on see what you have achieved. GOD BLESS x
