When I was a child and things got stressful I painted. When I got in my teens and life got heavy I painted. This has stayed true through out my entire life. I paint to calm me to help me regroup my thoughts and to give me strength. I’m very blessed to have been given this ability. Painting can reach the deepest part of my heart and soul. It fills me up when I’ve run empty. My art is the...

Trust me there is a redo in this blog, now read on. It’s not healthy to be jealous of what others have. Nor is it right to want what others have. Ever heard the term keep your eyes on your own page? Well that old saying applies to what your neighbor has. If you spend your time looking and wanting what others have you waste your time.

Three weeks and my daughter and her little family move into their new home. I’m so excited for them and for us, the empty nesters. Once again I can walk to the dryer to get my work out clothes while wearing my underwear. If I forget to check the back door to see if it’s locked before we go to bed I can do that bra-less and not worry if I’ll run into my son-in-law. LOL all funny things but...

Meet LaTonya

I am a creative with a vintage soul and a happy heart. Just as I set out with a new purpose to restore my life 5 years ago, I try to find the beauty in beaten up and forgotten pieces for the home.
