I am on a roll, and so thought it would be fun to show more photos from the past.
Interestingly, I had my first solo exhibition at the Chester County Arts Association in 1976, and my last solo exhibition in Pennsylvania at Chester County Arts Center about a year before I returned to the UK/Europe in 1993.
I am standing next to one of a series of large oils which were all biographical still life paintings. This painting represents the lives of two very important people in my life journey.
My first solo exhibition at CCAA in 1976.
A newspaper cutting of me in front of the large oil portrait of my dear (departed from this world) friend, the astrologer Adzie Mixxie. I am pleased to say that it is now with me in London.
My son Jarrod and I enjoying The Easter Parade in New York….about 1995
A studio in the Massara Buiding, West Chester, Pa. The large oil self portrait was painted in 1989.
A road trip across Texas on the way to Sante Fe, New Mexico, with American artist, Maggie Battalino.
Teaching in Spearfish, S. Dakota.
A ‘selfie’ I took just before Christmas, wearing my prized medal from Axlepin Publishing in the Philippines.
Sometime, I will show some of the many photographs taken since I returned to the UK /Europe in 1993.

My Life as an Artist (2) 
I so love looking at these pictures of your own personal story. They go beautifully with your creative work. You shine through… and it’s such a pleasure to see you now and then… your person, that I’ve grown to love by way of the enigmatic virtual reality. Thank you for sharing, Janet.
Thank you so much Shimon. After several years of our virtual friendship, I feel as if I really know you, and still live in hope that I might meet you in person before we both depart for other zones:)x
I am fascinated by your photos and seeing some of your work.:)xxx
Thank you Kathryn. In truth this is just a tiny sampling. I must get going on that book:) xxx
Your talent is truly a gift from God! And it never ceases to amaze and delight me! You are, without a doubt, up there with the “Greats” of all history!
Well Dawn, with amazing compliments like that, I won’t be able to fit my head through doorways:). Love you loads and look forward to the day when we can meet up again in person.xxx
Love these, Janet! I am connected to these in so many ways: from my friendship with you, I smile at these beautiful memories!

I keep discovering new things. I guess it what goes into making us who we are. We must keep working and reinventing ourselves. Fabulous
Good morning Olga….yes, life can be a rich journey as long as we are willing to go with the flow, so to speak, and yes reinvent ourselves:) Have a wonderful weekend. 🙂
