Blog

This blog tells about the updates Angela makes.

It features her art but talks a bit about others, etc. as well. This does not happen in every post!

Angela is not shy in speaking up about others who have inspired her, etc.

This blog is to help create awareness of LGBTQ rights, etc. but first speaks up for Women in the arts.

However please note that if you have any political issues, etc. contact those in charge of them. This blog is mainly about art.

Thank you for understanding and Namaste

Holidays!

Hey you guys!

I have a few things to share with you in this post.

I hope that you had a wonderful Christmas, etc. and celebrated however YOU believe is right.

I wanted to talk about Lilith first. I know that this topic is not 100% Holiday related. It is interesting to me though, so here we go.

I was not taught about Lilith and do not know if there is actual physical proof of her exsistence.

I DO however know from reading that she was known to be the first wife of Adam. Only unlike Eve, she stood up for what she believed in and would not lay with Adam. Due to that, she was considered a demon or close to one.

That is probably why I was never taught about her. People often judge what they are afraid of and do not teach it.

Eve was said to be created later from Adams rib in order to reproduce. I don’t know exactly how I feel about that one because there is no Scientific way that a person can be created from anothers rib.

At the same time, I see little harm in believing in something if it helps you get through life. I’m conflicted because in all honesty books like the bible have infact been the cause of wars, etc. over the years. This is why I choose none of them anymore and only believe in the unknown & life.

I just choose not to only see the bad because in reality these books have also helped in many ways and have done good too.

Last week I mentioned that I am a NEW MEMBER of the Professional Writers Alliance!!!

I had to mention that again because I’m super excited to see where it leads!!!

I also mentioned before that I have other blogs.

Well, I got ahead of myself creating so many.

Due to that, I only have one extra blog now. You can find it at

https://angelas-art-unites.blogspot.com/

I’m probably going to be using it to talk about certain issues that I feel can not fit correctly here on this blog.

Plus, this blog is more about my art.

I am hoping that it will grow so that like many, I can charge monthly and be paid so I will have a monthly income.

The way some handle money is not always wonderful so I have a love/hate relationship with it but let’s face it shall we? Money does pay for rent, food, bills, etc. because none are free. Everyone needs either a job, to be married or to have family that supports them.

Moving on though, the first two photos that I’m sharing this week show multiple ornaments and were made when my zazzle store was up. I loved to create in my zazzle store!

Sadly I think someone did not like my being happy or making my family happy so they made sure my store was taken down. Of course some would claim that were all in my head but in reality that is the way techology works. Seeing and hearing things is more likely to be in your head and I don’t do either.

I did not sell most of these because they were made for my family. Anything sold, wasn’t really sold well because those I know aren’t really into my selling things, ESPECIALLY my family. Which I had to get used to because others seem so proud of their families that they actually WANT to share. I guess in some eyes, I’m not worthy of being proud of but such is life. Besides! I’m proud of myself! GRINS

It was and in all honesty is rather hurtful behaviour. I just know how to ignore it today and rise above. Plus, in all honesty I have multiple artist friends who DO support others and many DO make me smile! They may not even know it but they help me look past anything else. That sort of thing has happened for years whenever I would try to make money from a store, it would be technically attacked. That’s also kinda expected when you’re an artist. You can either handle it or you can’t. The ONLY store that never caused that issue was my main store. It did start though, which is why some pages are down for now. Their being down is not going to stop me from creating them all over again. It will just take awhile and give me more work to do. If anyone can do it though, I can! GRINS

Squarespace must have good technical protection for me NOT to have had issues until recently.That says ALOT about them if you ask me.

Anyway, here are the ornaments!

If you’ve looked at my past posts, you may recognise some of the ornaments these photos show but they also show more. They do not show ALL of them but as many as I have photos of.

Here is an audio that I made talking a bit about my ornaments!

I hope that you enjoy!

As explained in the audio above, this last one shows my grandpa cooking.

Yes! He would cook and made one heck of a fish meal too!

Sadly, Memorial sent him home early and he ended up dying by bleeding to death.

My being vegan today, I hardly eat fish but that is one meal I do believe that I’d jump at having if today he were not only here in spirit. Although, in reality that probably wouldn’t be possible because I was not allergic to lactose at that time.

Again I hope that you had/have a very very Happy Christmas!

I am American but I DO believe that a greeting is infact a greeting. You can say Merry or Happy and they truly mean the same things, so what’s the difference!?! To ME, the meaning behind the words is TRULY what matters. I used Merry for so long that it is boring to me next to Happy.

Due to that, Happy Christmas!

Until next time.

Namaste,

Angela
