Hi guys I haven’t written in a while. That’s kind of a good thing because it means I’ve been busy with my art and my family and my life and me and my dogs. But now, since I have a break, I am looking to add to my madness! I don’t know how I am going to do it…. But I’m damn sure gonna try. I’m writing today to start my new journey of using my other talent to the fullest at the same time as keeping up with drawing for you guys!
With all of this inflation caused by this horrible horrible president (oh my god he’s so horrible and I hate him so much), my husband wants me to get a steady paying job.. I have not worked outside of the house in 17 years.! I honestly think that if I get a job outside the house it will ruin me. It will take away all of my creativity and my happiness that took me so long to gain back. So……not only am I an artist with my hands and my eyes but I am with my mind as well and I can write! It has been a long time since I have practiced and I’m no Hemingway, but I am smart and everything that I know and everything that I have and everything that I do is self taught. Therefore, if it takes me a little longer to write the book because I have not been in the business EVER and I don’t know what I’m doing and I don’t know who to go to Or where to go first, I only know to pick up a pen and start writing on paper….. SO BE IT! But… I’m going to blog for practice! Also, I’m open to honest suggestions and help. But first! Please know that I AM a NEW YORKER in too many ways. What do I mean by that? IM BRUTALLY HONEST WITH MY MOUTH…….. I don’t sugar coat anything….. I’ve lost a lot of people in my life this way but….too bad! I don’t have time to be fake. I don’t have the brain capacity to keep up with all of the things that I do and then try to remember my lies as well……damn it…..I sometimes can’t even remember my truths! I’m only telling you this because you may or may not want to follow me. I thought once I got what I always dreamed I would have…..or would become…..a professional artist with her own art studio, I would be satisfied with my life and content to just live it as so…… but noooo that is not Me apparently, because here I go again….moving on to something else! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING THROUGH TO THE END! I WILL TRY TO KEEP MY CHARACTERS TO A MINIMUM WHEN I WRITE NEXT TIME. BUT NO PROMISES….I AM AFTER ALL A PRACTICING WRITER :) ALL OF MY LOVE TO YOU!

Say Hello to Rudolph the Red Nosed Pitt bull.... She is an example of my simple pencil portraits which can be commissioned (made to order) at a lesser cost than my highly detailed pieces.
I will keep this short and sweet. I have a new way for you to order. I have an Etsy Store. You will be able to find that link on this website and I will add to my Facebook and Instagram pages. Please click on the link to visit my Etsy Store custom-holiday-gift.html Hi Friends,
I have had many people ask me what Jenofall means. I am here to finally share my secrets...lol... Jenofall is Jen of all trades. When I was a kid I heard someone say they were a Jack-of-all trades and I questioned what that meant...I think it resonated with me and as an adult who didn't think I knew what I wanted to do when I grew up until most recently, I dabbled in many things. I am a self proclaimed, Empath, a writer, a mother, a wife, an artist, an animal lover and a Libra. As an Empath, I feel deeply and my intuition is super keen. I have friends who tell me they can literally tune-out and ignore their kids, husband, friends, etc.....not me, I have tried but I am so tuned in to them and everything they do and the same with everyone around me that I become exhausted very easily. But the good thing is I can literally re-charge with a small amount of rest. Empaths make the best friends and employees...just a little FYI. As a Libra, I dislike conflict. My scales always have to be balanced. I avoid uncomfortable confrontation. Besides this, I am a middle aged woman who still feels like a kid, with the exception that I don't let my emotions get the best of me as I used to. I either love you or I just don't care. I have come to realize that there's not too many people like me, but having this knowledge helps. I feel like the world is filled with so much hate, anger, resentment, racism, chaos, sickness, but it can also be filled with so much love too. I choose to spread that love because I think the world needs more of it. I am very fortunate in that I was able to retire from the rat race almost 15 years ago and I spent intimate time with my one and only child every moment for those years. As she ages, she requires more freedom which has given me the opportunity to go back to what I love. I am working on a children's book as well as an adult fiction book and I have my art. These are things I have been interested in since a young girl. Most of you read my blog from last year where I outlined the negative forces working against me while growing up in my family home. For those of you who didn't read it, in short, I didn't have encouragement to become who I was meant to be and I became lost for a long time. There was many forms of abuse and it was all just something very very bad that I would never ever in a million years wish on even my worst enemy. But I am definitely above and beyond that now and am very focused on the things I believe in. Lastly, I posted along with the link to my website, a note that said I would include testimonials for my art work in this blog, however, I decided to put a few right on my website instead. Good Vibes to everyone. I can't believe we are full swing into spring. Before we know it we are going to be into the dog days of summer. (pun intended <3)
I know everyone is busy getting ready for Communions, Confirmations, Prom, end of year dances, graduations, planning summer vacations, etc. But .......... Please don't forget Mothers Day on May 12th!!! And next up is Father's Day on June 16th!!! I don't know about you but I am always looking for something other than a flashlight with little gadgets or a BBQ set for the father in my life... Here's your opportunity to give them something that they will always remember. Reach out to me for your timeless treasure and you will be happy you did. I am on Etsy as well as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and you can also reach me through e-mail.
