Why I created my New Group on Facebook

This is a show we did at The Ugly Mug, located: Farmington, Mn

As alot of people know, I love creating art/crafts. I have to admit......I am a starving artist! However, that hasn't stopped me from creating art! Many times I have thought about it many times but have never gave it up or ever will! Like most starving artists, we go the neg. and emotional feeling it comes with!

What stops me from giving up and continue doing art?

All the little voices I hear - so loudly "You can't quite"! Your NOT a quiter!! You're going to succeed! If you quit you will never live your dreams! Giving up only ends dreams! ect....
I also enjoy art too much and would die inside if, I ever stopped making art! Not to mention I have ALOT of money invested in all my art supply's!
Most of the time, I stay positive and that's what really keeps me going :) I love what I do and love being me! After all, isn't what we are really suposed to be doing in life?
Just recently I have been selling quite a few of my creations and making some customer orders:) What a WONDERFUL feeling!

Why I created an online facebook group!
I love connecting with other people with similiar interests. For quite some time I have been thinking about creating a group on Ning. That never happened!
There are a few groups I belong to, where there is no selling/advertising! Which I understand/respect that!
I keep hearing, "Why don't you just create your own group?" Then, one day, I thought "YEAH!" AND...so I did :) It's name after my shop (which is located in my home - soon to be open to the public) called, "The Crafty Castle".
I created "The Crafty Castle" (aka TCC) so creative people can connect, advertise, and sell their artwork! It's also for buyers/collectors/window shoppers!
I love to inspire people in many ways! I also love to be inspired!! So, this group is perfect!
TCC has so many nice & talented people. I feel blessed and so happy I created it :)
I want to say thanks to everyone that belongs to TCC and/or has great interest in it! Because without you, there would be no castle.
This is a open group and you can add your friends : http://www.facebook.com/groups/106709052761801?id=109854042447302&notif_t=like#!/groups/106709052761801

Today I am living a dream online and it feels WONDERFUL! I love life and everyone it!
Appreciate all the good/little things in life and see good things happen!

Blessed be ~Gypsie

I love my new friends/customers!



I made this special order for a customer, now my lovely friend :)


Here is what Ceane had to say:
My custom-ordered Apache Tears pendant came in today's post! How enchanting!The stones are just the right size for me, and they look as though sprinkled with faerie dust, such is their natural coloration! The piece is at once lacy and magickal-- truly enchanting, and the best part of it are the energies Gypsie Artist infused therein...! I was blown away when I opened my package! Though I fancy myself a word-master, there really are no words that can express my gratitude, my joy, my love for this very special creation infused with so much love and healing power that I can actually FEEL! This woman is a true healer, artiste, and enchantress of the very best kind. She is replete with love! Thank you, Gypsie, and blessings 3X3X3 back to you for your kindness to me!


Thanks so much Ceane! Your order was a real blast to design and add great magick to it as well! I am so glad we connected & now friends!!


Peace & love ~Gypsie <3

Inspired painting by a dream



First of all before the story begins on my painting, I wanna say: My mom & I don't get along very well in the past! Growing up the two of us was always arguing/fighting :(
Now, days we get along pretty good :) We see one another on rarely basis. Which works out for the best! Welove each other very much!! I have always know I am very special to her (as my sisters are too).
Meaning behind my painting by Gypsie
This painting was inspired by a dream I had. One night I woke up remembering what I dreamed & knew I was to paint it.
I had a dream, that I was as my moms and walking up her driveway....when all of a sudden it got really windy and the earth started shaking! My mom came running out of her house towards me. Yelling, Get down! Get down! Get down on the ground! This is it!
I listened to her words! THen, proceeded to lay flat (belly) down. She jumped on top of me and said, "Don't worry, I will save you"! I remember thinking....."THis is it! It is time for the world to end! I wasn't ready to die! I wished/wanted/needed my family with me!! There were so, many things running through my head! I remember feeling scared but feeling safe!
All of a sudden, this big giant ball of water came rolling/rumbling towards us and landing on top of us! I thought, oh shit, I don't know how to swim! Then, a thought accured to me.....it's going to be ok! My mom is my Angel and she will save me! We went under the ball of water (which I always wanna call Fire). Then, I woke up from the dream. Then, I kept hearing - that I am supposed to paint this! I didn't know how or what I was gonna do. But did succeed with how it was suposed to be done!
What does the images represent?
The big blue ball is water.
The middle image is an angel. The wings are doves - my mom and I both love doves! The one one the left is her, one on the right is me. In the center of the angels body is an infinity symbol. If you take her head and put it on the bottom of her - it completes the infinity symbol.
The yellow image is the infinity symbol.
The orange to me feels like energy going out!
I never believed or felt the world is going to end like they make it out to be! I believed that the world was going to end & new beginnings were coming! By this I mean....bad things in life where going to happen to bring more people together. Making new peace/love! That is where the new beginings start! We are all supposed to love one another in life! That is one of our life learning lessons & a big part in why we are here on earth!
This is how my "Dream Angels" where created! I hope you enjoy my dream story :)
