My Introduction

Hello! I like to introduce myself to everyone. My name is Shirl (it is not short for Shirley) and I am a creative soul. I love art, music, and the written word. I am a photographer, soon to be graphic designer, and sometime a writer/poet. I am also a disciple of Jesus, He makes my creative soul sing aloud. Which by the way I love to sing too!
I started my walk with Jesus at the tender age of sixteen years,  I also discovery a deep love of photography at that time, too. My works often reflects my life and my thoughts. I love showing the beauty of nature in my photographs and the struggles of my life in my poems. My faith has bloomed and wilted over the past years but now thru those trails of my life my faith is stronger and blooming more everyday.
A blessing in my life was that I  traveled and lived in different parts of our country. I enjoy the painted desert of Arizona to New England colorful autumns. I even lived thru a Minnesota winter and now enjoy the southern lifestyle. I know one thing about all this traveling, is that I love the diversity of people and especially the foods of each region.
One thing that have been consist in my journey of life is this, never stop learning. I challenge myself to try a learn something new, I love bible studies and I even went back to school for a second time to study graphic design. Even when I get this degree, I probable find classes that will entice my brains and make it giggle. So I always  reading from  books of fiction to the news online, I hope that I can be aware of the world and the people around with all their struggles and triumphs.
 I like to share in my next post a poem I wrote and the story behind it.
PS
Here a sample of my work.
