Hi ladies! I'm new to the forum and sisterhood, but a longtime Maryjane fan and camper daydreamer. I'm super excited about a new series of paintings I've been working on all about Glamping!I'll share some of them soon. I've got my fingers and toes crossed that I will some day find a vintage camper I can nab and cozy up for family weekends in North Ga. I'm contemplating starting a sisterhood chapter here in McDonough, GA. We'll see. I'm an illustrator at coke full time and teach painting, and I illustrate books so I'm trying to decide if I can add that to my wagon or if it would be too much. One of my favorite memories as a child was the fun tiki lights my grandma hung from her camper awning when we spent time at the lake.

I love glamping and art. Can not wait to meet you artgirl. I actually have a 2003 coyote hybird near Logan Landing very reasonable in Alpine AL. Also know of a truck slide- in not sure the age but needs glamping. Prices under 5 thousand. I now camp on a retro look micro light tear drop purchased in Michigan. Fits me and my dog or grandson! Anyway, happy searching for your glamping camper. The search is as much fun as the glamping so do your research and take yout time.
Happy glamping!!! |

Heather,
Consider printing your art pieces onto cards and selling them. That would go over very large here.

Heather,
Oh my you do beautiful Art, I love it all and you are so creative! I never would have thought to make a dragon fly the way you did, how neat. I am glad you are on the farm and hope to see more of you and your art on here often.
Thanks and hugs darlene

Love seeing your art. What an eye for detail you have! Love the rooster. Do you sell your pieces anywhere? Enjoy your Valentine's Day!

I do :) I have an etsy store where I sale party printables of things like big foot paper dolls and pin the tail on the mermaid, Marie Antoinette party stuff and all that. A few gift shops sale my art and prints, and my most exciting venture... I have a series of paintings I'm submitting to possibly be sold at the Art of Disney stores !!!!! The monster book i illustrated is also available through amazon. What do you think about me starting an all farmgirl/glamping etsy store filled with prints for the sisters? DO you think it would do ok?

Wow! Love hearing about your artsy world. I think that your farmsisters would support you. How do I find you on etsy? The Big Foot Paper dolls sound awesome. My kind of girl! I'm a huge Disney fan. Looking forward to hear more about your adventures.

Hi Heather,
Welcome!! We are so happy you are here. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us, it is breathtaking. You have a lot of talent.
Do you have any interest in the swaps? I thought you might like mail art or I host a reclaimed item swap. Your dragonflies might be a bit large for a swap, but its up the right alley. :)
I hope to see more of your work and look forward to getting to know you.

Heather, I too am looking to buy a camper next year. I'm so excited to be able to start taking little trips again in my state and maybe branch out across the border one day!
I love the dragonfly out of table legs and ceiling fan blades. How do you display it or hang it? I want to try and make one myself.
