1. I met my husband in 7th grade, when we were 12. If not for him I would not be doing what I do today. Thanks, Honey. PS: we met in the fall of 1964....
2. In high school I was a cheerleader and then a majorette. I liked marching around the field like a fool to corny band music, and twirling a baton, more than cheering the jocks on to football victories.
3. I was so traumatized in art school that I didn't draw or paint for years because of that. Instead I became a puppeteer with my husband and then a dollmaker.
4. My natural hair color is bright red, which is turning gray, so most people think I am a blonde but really I am a red head who has gotten old.
5. My first book as author/illustrator is a story that I first scribbled down 24 years before it came out as a book (don't give up).
6. I collect things: cowboy boots, cookie jars, Elvis lamps and stuff, jukeboxes, cowboy chotckes. This is a problem. I love junk. I hate to dust.
Now I have to tag people--yes?
They have to post 6 obscure things about themselves.
This is fun, but don't try to do it after 3 drinks.....
I tag:
Shennen Bersani
Liz Dubois
John Nez
Paula Becker
Janee Trasler
Monica Lee
