Halloween and Vine
For as long as "Halloween and Vine" has existed (a really fabulous Halloween art show) I have wanted to attend but every year there is something that I have going on so I miss it. Finally, last weekend I got to go (it's in Petaluma) and had a fabulous time with my daughter Courtney. It was a moment I wish I had unlimited funds to spend-I would have bought pieces at almost every booth and yes I definitely would have purchased first at Nicole Sayre's booth-my favorite doll artist. It was definitely the highlight for me to meet the doll artist who has been such an inspiration to me-I just love her work! Like a typical fan of a celebrity, I did ask for a picture with her and she very kindly agreed-if you ever read this Nicole, thanks for making my day!
About Me
- Jenene
- I am an artist. If you don’t believe me, the company I work for listed me as one, so therefore, I am now an official artist. I have to laugh about that because I’ve always felt too insecure to call myself one since I am self-taught. Because of that I’ve been perfectly content being called a crafter. I like being a crafter and the dictionary says that “a crafter is someone who’s profession or activity involves the skillful making of decorative objects”. Wow, that’s me. I love to make decorative objects (for the holidays especially). Of course, now that I have my artisan title, I had to see what the dictionary said about that. An artist is “somebody who creates art, especially paintings or sculptures”. Okay, I do painting and sculpting so I guess it’s okay to have that title too. Now I can be happy with both titles and live my lifelong dream.
