Who am I?
Johnnie belinda born to create starting with my mothers walls to my clothes as a child. As an adult I still paint on my clothes and walls,but now its on canvas and hardboards.I am self inspired to create images that come forth at any time .I will draw on anything that is available when inspired from my clothes to scraps of paper.
My main interests are encaustic,and lifecasting at this time.I have exhibited my artworks locally. I Am ready to expose my works to a larger veiwing public to touch peoples lifes with art.
I have worked with cancer patients in creative healing workshops. I open my home to anyone who is interested in finding their creative spirit.
Art is my life to be with out it my spirit would crumble within it's self.

I would like feed back on latest works 2008-05-09 I have upload two pieces.I am getting ready for two solo show in June and July of this year,I would like feed back on my work.I love my work and feel it's uplifting.The colors are so vibrant and play well against each other.
My first art works where commissioned pastel pet portraits I loved painting them but after awhile there was no spontaneity
in creatitivity, so I started playing with my paints and found I like the engery from abstracts,How they make your mind work in puzzling out what you are seeing.The colors that play against each other just sing with exceitment in my abstracts....The encaustic are my favoite of all mediums I like the finished looks very rich and clean colors.I still paint with pastels like painting subjects like my daughter and granddaughter.

I am a psychic who uses art doodles to read for clients.I have received lots of attention by being a visionary artist in my community in that my art is not the traditional art.I am not afraid to be differnt and talk about my way of creating through meditative states of mind, much like a daydream where ideas and calmness enter into our being.In my abstract works there are tiny images that can be interpted as spirit beings angels,people and animals.When doing reading I scripple as I look at client and will interpt such images as found on my paper as I enter their vibration.It is hard not to separate myself from the spiritual world as I create art. I do know as an artist that we as artist feel the God engery surround us as we create.
My new piece" The Field Of Tigers" 2008-05-02 This is my newest piece. I will be doing a solo exhibit in June at Boxcar Books in Bloomington Indiana featuring my encaustic works "Celebrations In The Sky" and A "Field Of Tigers" are my newest creations.
New artist 2008-04-19 Okay where to start I'm not to sure what a blog is or how to use it,but here goes.
I have ben creating since childhood just until the last few years have I become a true artist. willingto let go of art for money. It is a hard thing to let go of something you have created when you fall in love with it ,like you would a pet or a child.
My art has helped me through some dark times in my life starting at a young age......I with drew from people and became very quiet and shy.I got my first start with art in the hospital with paint by numbers,from that point on I was hooked.Learning to draw and paint gave me a new confidence in myself sorta of self acceptance it didn't matter what others thought of me just knowing I could do something that was pretty to look at was all I needed.So I began art work of pets and family members.
Until my grandfather passed away from cancer the joy left me and I did not paint until I went through another life change.picking up a pencil and paper and began doodle was enough to get my creative juices working...I now exhibit my works in juried shows and local galleries, getting some expouser to wider audience through news paper articles and word of mouth and a lot of donations to the befits as helped alot....
