Oh, Ballet!

Tour jete' Triolet

Toe shoe lacing sends pulse racing
Tonight en pointe she would dance
Prima ballerina pacing
Toe shoe lacing sends pulse racing
Expectant audience facing
Supple muscles, lithe limbs entrance
Toe shoe lacing sends pulse racing
Tonight en pointe she would dance!

Pastel billowing, tulle parades
Back stage before act one begins
Just as opening music fades
Pastel billowing, tulle parades
Prismatic troupe of graceful maids
Pirouettes en pointe chorus spins
Pastel billowing, tulle parades
Back stage before act one begins                
Written by Mr. Rock

I was one of those little girls who dreamt of becoming a dancer. I loved to dance in front of people...and they thought I was adorable!

Things changed when I grew older. Mom and Dad were not so pleased that I spent too much time on it. They thought I should be more focused on studying.

Well, I don't blame on them for stopping me from pursuing my dream. I could never make it my career- But I have always kept it in my heart.

Here are my wathercolor paintings

Happy Holidays!

Planting Seeds of Kindness

Tie kindness to planting seeds -- seeds start small and they grow and sprout into big plants or huge trees just like kindness can grow. 

A week ago, someone wanted to order my ' Dandelion Wish" Iphone case for her sister's upcoming birthday via etsy - VHNYBoutique. She mentioned that her sister knew me.

Yes, Her sister was a friend of S. We met during the Lawrenceville School reunion this May. Before then, she told me where I could secretly plant My Little Norway Spruce, in central park. 

I decided that I would give her the case as her birthday gift! They wanted order 5 cases to support my fledgling business as return. They love my painting, and sent me their pets pictures for portrait. I had not painted many animals before! They were so adorable! I did enjoy painting them. Kate - the border collie, was the most challenging one. She just passed away. They did not have a good shot of her. I had to rely on a very blurry picture of her and how they described her to create the image of Kate. I understood how much she meant to them, it was so emotional. I took the project very seriously! Fortunately, the outcome was great! Here are the cases I created! My original paintings are much nicer. It is inevitable and unfortunate that some details and color saturation are sacrificed during the printing process!
