i am an artist,
and while it took me years to claim that,
it fits me, and i now own the title proudly.
i am also an
avid artist supporter.
i love handmade works
and i am totally stoked
that i am fortunate enough
to go online everyday and see, and be,
inspired by the amazing works of art of others.
having said that,
pinterest became the perfect place
to collect, support, share and build inspiration boards.
perfect, until i caught wind that maybe what i was doing
wasn't the coolest thing to do {for artists or for legal reasons},
so, without much real thought
{but lots of obsessive, i.e. worried thoughts},
i flew the coop.
{that's the OCD in me, i am proud to claim that title, too}.
i missed pinterest terribly...like really, really bad.
at first, i thought being free
was going to give me more time for creative endeavors,
and i felt i was doing the 'right' thing, but i missed it. truly,
so i kept checking back to see what others were posting.
that's when i found two fantastic things:
this pink chocolate chip cookie recipe and this notice.
and now, i'm back
on pinterest.
it will take me a long time
to get back to where i was
and i miss my old boards,
but i hope you will follow me
as i pin thoughtfully and supportively
in support of the community
that i love so much!
oh, and i made the cookies in aqua,
because i love
pink
as much as the next girl,
but i kinda have this thing for aqua.
{but, you already knew that}.
