Great Quote

"the longer you spend time working on something-

loving it into being, almost-

the more you get attached. It's silly,

but you do hope they go to good homes."

-Anne Desmet

I haven't posted for a few and that is because I am in Florida visiting a best friend and designing a new web site for her! She was at my first birthday and she was nine months old...

gosh , this is true!
I often move my latest painting around the house with me , so I can see it no matter what room I'm in!
Once I put one I had JUST completed in the front seat next to me so i could glance at it at the traffic lights , going to pick up my son!

Wild , crazy artists , !!
Cheers , Helen

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
