I'm a 50+ polymer clay artist and mother of six...2 cats, 3 dogs and 1 grown up fella. I have multiple sclerosis and, altho still ambulatory, have some limitations as to what I can do physically. This doesn't keep me from enjoying my life and photography has become a very large part of that enjoyment. The camera has certainly taught me to see in a different (better) way...it is also helping me get over my fear of insects! This is a VERY GOOD THING!! I haven't posted any of my artwork on Flickr yet but hope to soon.
