Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror. -Rabindranath Tagore

Reading is SEXY

Because reading is smart. Smart is beautiful. Beautiful is SEXY. The Vast Landscape is emotion, authentic, raw truth in a moment of chaos when the whole world could use something beautiful. Faith. Strength. Love. Hope.

Fine Lit., Not Chick Lit.

I love makeup, creams and potions. I really, truly do. Products help us feel good, and smell delish. Why not?! I enjoy empowering women (& men), to look and feel beautiful. I've painted supermodels and celebrities, recognizing in an instant what inner beauty means. The 'it factor', inner confidence, kindness, humility. You can't fake grace. There were 'beautiful ones' who were plain old ugly. 
Boring, ego-centric and demanding, I couldn't wait to escape.

Lovely comes in all shapes and shapes, the beauty that is Lizzie Velasquez. Born with a rare disease, Lizzie beats the odds every day. 23 years young, she is the epitome of pretty. 

Strangers gawk, bullies push. That won't stop her. Lizzie is making a difference and the world a prettier place.

"But she didn't let the bullying get her down. Instead Velasquez wrote two books: "Be Beautiful, Be You" and "Lizzie Beautiful." Now the young woman delivers motivational speeches to young students across Texas. She even created a YouTube video titled "It Gets Better," which has had nearly 2.5 million views since she posted it in 2010."
