Hi! Welcome to Purple Joy Art

It’s 9:30 am on friday morning. My kids are at school. My house is quiet.  Yesterday my son turned 9 years old and I have been a stay at home mom since he was born.  Three days ago my daughter started kindergarten and so for the first time in 10 years I have no kids at home with me.  It seems almost surreal. I put them on the bus walked back into the house and thought, “what do I do now?”  Well, on the first day my husband and I went wine tasting and we said “wooo hoo!!” lol

But then I got to work,  and  am doing something I have thought about doing for years. As I sit here drinking a cup of coffee I am creating a website and store to share and sell my artwork.  I have been loosly selling paintings over the years while staying home with my kids.  Mostly commission work, paintings of peoples kids, pets, paintings for nurseries or wedding gifts…but it was always just here and there whenever I could squeeze in a few minutes to paint.  But now, Here I sit, just me and Rachel Ray -she’s cooking mashed potatoes- and I am making a store.  

Well, that’s all for today! I hope you like my work.  I’d love to here from you if you have any questions or just want to say hello!  Please check out my work for sale on my Etsy Shop www.etsy.com/shops/purplejoyart  

And stay tuned as I will be adding more 🙂 Have a wonderful day!!
