The Calm Before The Storm.

I've been feeling really inspired lately. I got the chance to see a friend whom I haven't seen in about six years. We played in the Shasta Youth Symphony together before she moved away to pursue a career in music. She came back last weekend and performed as the viola soloist with the Shasta Symphony and blew me out of my chair. It kinda sparked that fire up in me again to play like I used to.
As far as makeup goes I've been able to do a couple professional gigs a month which is another great creative outlet for me. I love to do bridal makeup but the picture below is inspired by the great model Twiggy. Lyn was so perfect for this look and it was so fun to try and re-create something so timeless. I hope that I can continue to do things outside of being a homemaker. I value the time I have away to explore other things about me that I might not have known about if I hadn't taken the time to find it. Nothing is worse then sacrificing the very thing that makes you... well; you.
