I live with my husband and children in a 170 year old house in the (very) small city of Mount Vernon, Ohio. I come from a family full of successful artists - published authors, professional musicians and talented fiber artists, but I didn't discover my creative calling until I was in my 30's. So if any of you out there think you aren't creative - you just haven't found your medium yet! Keep looking, it's worth it.
