My New Website is Here!

My new website is up at http://www.everythingjenni.com. Biscuit surfs my site daily with his morning coffee and treat. Okay, I have owned the domain name for my website for at least one year now. I have been so busy and I was never confident enough to put it together. About two weeks ago I decided it was time to stop dilly dallying. I logged into my account and created a website. I have done this numerous times in the past for other people, but when it is for yourself it is entirely different. I found myself always questioning what I was doing. "Did I say the right thing? Did I post the right picture? Maybe I should just wait to put up a website.” Days later, I finally finished the webpage. I sat in front of my computer; a feeling of accomplishment mixed with fear ran through my body. It was time to publish the new website. I slowly placed my cursor over the “Publish” button, closed my eyes, and pressed down. Now I had done it. I put myself out there and there was no turning back. Although I may always continue to improve my website, I felt it was important to finally get something up for people to see. I’m sure time will bring changes to the website, but I can honestly tell you that I am happy to finally have jumped in and done it. So now that I have, be sure to stop by my website. More importantly, don’t forget to share it with your friends.

Hugs,
Jenni

Jumping in With Both Feet

It has been awhile since I painted on a canvas. Recently, I decided to test out one of my whimsical girls on a canvas. Sometimes I find that I have to throw caution to the wind and dive in. If I sit and ponder all of the things that could go wrong then I would never start. So this past week, I dove head first into painting on a canvas. It took some getting used to, but I'm loving where it is headed. I look at her sweet face and I think about how she is lost in her thoughts. We are getting a glimpse into her soul when we look at those eyes. She lets the chilly wind blow through her hair while she walks through the enchanted forest. She seems to be inviting us in to hear her tale. That tale will continue as I work through this painting. Watch for updates to see where she leads me.

Hugs,
Jenni
