It is Nov. 22, 2012 and I now have a Lumix digital camera!!!! yeh me! Amazingly, I use a disposable camera for all my photos.

I started out on this site five years ago wanting to post my photos and get your honest opinions. Since yahoo bought the remarkable Vancouver Company website it has gone down hill. Now a hacker infiltrated my yahoo. It has been a nightmare! I added my artwork and old photos of family so my cousins and siblings can view them. Now, I was reduced to 200 photos or pay as a professional. Bah humbug. My late mother had three albums full of family photos that only she had. She was the first to leave home to join the army in the 1940's. I am an Artist, photographer! I enjoy designing pen & ink note cards, charcoal portraits, painting and teaching.

My mentor is Picasso.

"Two of the most frustrated trades are dentists and photographers- dentists because they want to be doctors, and photographers because they want to be painters."
