MY RATING: 0.00

For the past several years I have been painting murals throughout our little town. I started an art gallery and metaphysical shop a few years ago and got kind of off-balance. I decided my family needed me most, closed the shop, and now they are my biggest project. We recently bought a beautiful little piece of forest with a spring-fed stream and have been working together to get it ready for our home. We are in the process of enhancing the fairyland that is naturally there. Learning everything I can about underground (hobbit) houses and strawbale building. We plan to build a hybrid of the two.

My family, painting, reading, writing, self-sufficiency and homesteading, spiritual growth, nature, cryptozoology, fairies specifically and anything mystical and magickal in general.

Ending Domestic Violence, Raising Children's Self-esteem, Teaching others that they can be creative, Celebrating diversity.

"Conversations with God" (the entire series) "Back to Eden" (Herbal healing - my copy is so worn and well loved it's held together with duct tape) "The Soul's Code" Anything by Deepok Chopra, Gary Zukov and Mark Twain

Favorite Styles:Celtic, old-school blues, bluegrass, rock and roll, country Favorite eras are 50's, 70's and 90's Favorite Artists: Z.Z. Hill, Etta James, Sarah MacLaughlan, Loreena McKinnett, Bob Seger, Jonie Mitchell and so many more

Practical Magic, Forrest Gump, What Dreams May Come, The Secret, Princess Bride, Spiderwick Chronicles


Earth Cinema Circle





I intend to be the best possible version of me.

"I went to bitter lanes and dark that once had known the sky to carry them a dream and found they had more dreams than I." -The Dreambearer

I am married to a really nice, hardworking guy. We have three beautiful, feisty daughters: Cheyenne Rain (19), Aradia Dawn (8), and Matilda Magick (3). I have my first grandbaby (boy) on the way in just a few months. As for me personally, I am an artist. It's the only thing that's ever held my attention, although I've been everything from a shoe-shiner to a Merry Maid to an office worker. I am a recovering packrat who can't make sense of the directions on the box but I can come up with 1,000 ideas of what to do with the box.

I believe it's to motivate or inspire others but I'll have a clearer idea when I am at the end of it looking back.

Raising insightful, courageous, compassionate, spiritual and joyful children. Leaving each place I am at a little more beautiful than I found it.

Hey there.....thank you SO much for  your lovely comment.  I'm so thrilled you like Sacred Rituals ....i loved writing it (long long time ago now). 
How exciting that you're building your own home in that magical forest!  Wow.  I love the idea of combining a hobbit home with strawbale - there is a fair bit of strawbale building going on near w here I live, in the West Country of the UK.  I am in the process of doing up an old (several hundred years) house in a small town and enjoying the community part of it.  Before that though we lived in a very wild place which was totally magical.  Good luck with the self-build - keep  us posted eh?  janexx

Hi PaintWitch,

I have just opened a group called "Women of a certain age." although it is not exclusive. It is a chance to share your hopes and dreams, your struggles, your plans and offer encouragement. What have you achieved? What would you like to achieve? Please feel free to join in.

Hi Paint-Witch,

I loved reading your profile!  I have many similar interests as you.  I love this line in "About Me" 

"I am a recovering packrat who can't make sense of the directions on the
box but I can come up with 1,000 ideas of what to do with the box." 

I can so relate!  

I am also fascinated about your family building underground (hobbit) houses.  How cool!  I hope you will post some pictures when you have the hybrids done.  Anyways, have a great day!

Thank you for the nice comments,, yes, I do love nature, and I can see you must also.  Have a wonderful day.

I would love to have coffee with you someday.  Just reading your profile gave me renewed energy and a deeper sense of peace.  Sounds mutually exclusive, but feels wonderful!

Dear Paint Witch,

Love your Life, and, Goals, Do you think it would be possible to send me some Links to Good Sites about Green Homes, 'Straw Bale, and, Hobit Styles?' I may even Live w/o Power, off Grid, and, utilize Solar & Wind for basic limited power needs, but, Being Self Sufficiant.

Have an awesome Day,

lovingly,



pete

All the best with your forest home - it sounds just beautiful!

To you and your daughter,

MAY YOU RISE EACH DAY AWARE OF THE SACRED GIFT OF LIFE. MAY YOU OPEN YOUR EYES EACH MORNING TO THE MIRACLE THAT IS YOURSELF. MAY YOUR HEART KNOW THE LOVE THAT EVERY MOMENT SURROUNDS YOU, AND MAY YOU ACCEPT WITH OPEN HANDS THE DAILY GIFTS OF HOPE, OF JOY, OF WONDER, OF GRACE AND OF PRESENCE.

 With all my Love,

Shamila

Hi Paint-Witch,

Thank you for your lovely reply. While I was writing that I was introvert, there was a part of me that said "No you're not." Being a Gemini, I guess there are two sides to me. I have an intense serious side and a crazy fun loving and creative side. So I guess I am a bit of both. Hubby is a Scorpio and much more attached to the ground. My Sons are 28yrs (Robert) 26yrs (John) and 25yrs (Alison). It's interesting that you asked if my mother had made contact yet? I spent my Birthday evening at a well known psychic and medium evening and although there were many authentic connections, there were none for me. I am happy though and my spirituality feels as if it is strengthening again.

Hi Paint-Witch,


It's such a joy to welcome you. I am enchanted by your profile, especially your reference to nature and fairies. I love fairies myself and have a small collection of pictures, ornaments and my daughter bought me a fairy lamp that I keep in my office and share with my clients. The child in me refuses to grow up and this is where I get my creativity from. Good luck in your endeavours.


Love


Gilly.
