Hello Steemit!
I'm going to reintroduce myself since I had no clue as to what I was doing two weeks ago when I first started. I'm still learning things about Steemit every day. So let me get started. :)..... Hi everyone my name is Michelle I'm an artist from Kentucky. I have been drawing since I was able to hold a pencil and it's been my passion every since. I studied art for four years but some bad decisions I never went to college. Instead, I got into a relationship and put my passion on hold. I got married at the age of 24 and had a child the following year. Every day I felt something missing inside me. I wasn't happy and I was broken when my marriage failed. I moved back to my hometown and my daughter and I began our new lives. It took a while for me to awaken from the depressed daze I was in because I had given up everything and now I felt like I was left with nothing. I was wrong! I was put on this path because it was meant for me.
This is when I began drawing again. My mind had all these thoughts and visions that I just let flow out on paper. At that moment I found what was missing and what I needed to do. I started selling portraits locally and done pretty well. So I started exploring online I found some sites where I could sell my artwork this was what I needed. My life was getting back on track where I was meant to be. Sometimes I think you have to make stops along the way and I think that stop for me was for my daughter. My blessing.
My daughter Emily and I :)
Now that you know a little about me I'm Going to show you some previous drawings some I have posted before. :)
This was a late night drawing. This is when I get my strange but creative drawings.
I wasn't happy with just the girl spirit so I drew spirits around her also. I named this drawing "Haunted"
Here is a portrait of my father when he was younger. Yes he had to frame it :)... lol
Here is a portrait one of my friend's little boy. My camera isn't the greatest on my phone.
Here is the start of coloring my Nicole Kidman portrait
and the finishing of it :)
I hope you like my introduction of myself and my artwork. Art is my passion it has been my entire life and always will be . It is my way to relieve stress to run away from certain thoughts. It's my happiness!
