Hello there...

I call my blog "My Mother's Daughter" because, well, I am. When I was younger, everytime someone said "You're just like your mom!", I tried my darndest to prove that I wasn't. But, since I've gotten older, and noticed how much of my day-to-day has been affected by my mom, I realize that it's a good thing. So everyone who reads this: Go hug your mom. She deserves it. Anyway, my blog's all about the stuff I do that I'd like to share: recipes, arts and crafts, and more. (But no matter how much you ask, you can't have the ultra-secret family recipe for my mom's margarita chicken.) Thanks for stopping by!

A New Painting, and some thoughts


So, I finally finished a painting yesterday. I think it's awesome. It's a Zombie Muffin.

Anyway, this painting reminded me that all art doesn't have to be collage art (which has been horribly daunting to me as of late), and that collage art is not necessarily my best art.

Just like I've no idea what I want to be when I grow up, I've realized that I haven't really found my creative voice yet either.

I suppose the best thing I can do is experiment. Keep collaging, keep painting cute spooky things, keep... i dunno... bedazzling jean jackets, I guess.

I figure if I try it all, I'll find the thing that fits me best. Maybe it's this muffin. Maybe not.

Muffin-maker, signing off.
