An update!

Hello everyone,

I would like to say sorry for not being around, and here is an update! I have been very busy, with, no school for me, and time with my child. As well as keep busy with other appointments and trying to find a job.

Summer is coming and I am planning on doing a lot of outdoor activities. I have some new paintings that need scanning as well as a few drawings I have finished as well. But due to me being busy with everything else, sadly my website and blog has been neglected. Sorry about that!

Social outside of my home is becoming a new venture so I may be a while before posting post to post.

I thank you for the patience!

Just a little post before I go to bed! I have been BLOGGED!

I got blogged about the other day! Check it out!


This is a great blogger, I have been sharing some chats with. They have a wide range of things to read about and some very funny posts too. They are very intelligent, and well worth the visit.
I hadn't been doing much on blogger lately, so I hadn't noticed it until now!
Sorry I hadn't checked it sooner, perhaps I was a bit self absorbed at the time?


 

I'm so shocked I don't really know how to express my gratitude, I feel honored to be mentioned on someone's blog! I really don't know what to say...
Thanks so much, I am happy to be considered as a friend.

AnnJ

PS - Hope all is well with you, You have been in my thoughts!

Backgrounds and added information content UPDATES! NEW PHOTO ADDED

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to let you know I am updating my site a little bit. The site isn't changing too much but it does look as if it has gone through a major change, because I am changing the backgrounds and borders. This means that the look and feel looks way different, as I am changing those things. Nothing else has changed, the layout is exactly the same.

However I am adding a bit of informative content to a couple pages, as I feel that some little explanation needs to be added due to new sites that get added to the "Links/Other" page. It is just an short explanation that some artist pages listed there "may" contain graphic/nude content. I only added it because some people can feel offended by it, because some as non-artist don't understand the concept of nude art to be a beauty and another expression.

I also would like to mention, that I do not place nude on my site, simply because I am a mother and have an 11 year old boy, who enjoys my art and I have found him looking through my books. Knowing this about him I do not have any nude drawings, painting or any form of nude in any of my art, due to his wandering eyes in my work. I'd love to explore, drawing nudes, but knowing he will see it, I do not. He is 11 after all.

So if you take a look at my site and go through the pages(which can also be found on the right side bar) you might slowly see my updated pages.

Have a great week everyone!

Ann J

PS- You'll also find a surprise on this page that I newly added today!

Information about my site

Since this is my first real blog posting with more information about my site. I am just going to tell you the story of how everything came about, in a nutshell!

My website; showcasing my art, has come a very long way! The website itself started as just me playing around with html and creating a website for something to do. I didn't have any topics or any general idea of what the website would be about. But now that I have put more focus on my creativity, it has become so much more than just a regular website!

Over the years I have entered free HTML courses online; to learn more about website creation, for personal knowledge, of course! I had also join groups online for graphics programs, I gained knowledge and bettered my creativity in the process. These all being FREELY learned online, as a personal hobby. With these courses I took, I gained certification of completion! Even though those certifications were small, they gave me a sense of pleasure, knowing I had finished something I wanted for myself. Just simple things like that can give someone confidence to want to do more and better things for themselves!

I am going through my pages on my website and than when I am finally done that I will post what is new, my next blog posting with be a bit of an introduction.

Happy Easter!

Ann

About this Blog

Hello!
And this is my blog for my art website! This is the place you would want to be if you wanted to know if anything new has been added, and to where. Without this blog you would have to go to the website and go through all the many different pages to find anything new and try to guess what or where it might be!

This is also a great place to leave comments and or feedback about what you think, what you might like to see, or maybe even some opinion of changes you wouldn't mind seeing! You can make requests, set a challenge for me( if I am up to the challenge) or anything else you might have in mind for my art pages!

Please have a look around while I am still working and will add some new added updates here later one!

Thanks for taking the time to view!
