It's hard to create a blog via iPhone!

So what I'm hoping to do is be able to do my posting here and then share to Facebook in a more detailed fashion than some of the other social media's will allow. But you can find me on instagram as Marshaknoxartexpression (Let's hope that link works because I'm learning LOL.)  And of course you can also find me on Facebook as Marshaknoxartexpression also!  Let's hope I got that one right also. In the meanwhile don't forget to look around if I didn't get it right.  EDIT:  I DID NOT GET THE LINKS TO WORK SO I WILL HAVE TO WORK THAT OUT 😞. 

If you don't know anything about me let me introduce, myself my name is Marsha and I am a self-taught artist born and raised in Beautiful, and HOT!, St. Augustine, FL. I've never had a single art class. Thank goodness for the Internet and a good library.

I dabble in quite a number of things… At one time all I did was textile weaving and then I branched off into Pineneedle basket weaving. I'm kind of known for those baskets in my neck of the woods. I do sell them on my Facebook page but I really don't do as many of those anymore.  Mostly commissions. You can choose what kind of wood is used, you can choose what kind of thread colors are used and whatever size you like for the money you wish to spend. Here's a picture of one of them with an Olive wood focal. I have a store on my Facebook page if you're interested in purchasing one. There are some listed. Actually right this minute that's all that's listed I intend to use the blog for my other art sales. 


This will be my personal blog also so you'll find other information too, even some of my own personal views. Maybe even some educational information here and there. As I said I want this to be my own private place to share my thoughts and Art.

I have branched out a lot over the years.  I've done things like micro macrame, bead work minimally, knitting, crocheting, (but I don't do much of either one anymore), but mostly these days I love to draw and I have also picked up some watercolor, acrylic painting, and color pencil. The drawings and paintings or where my heart is this days. I love abstract art you'll see a lot of that here.

All of my art is for sale and you can always contact me at marshaknoxstsugfl@yahoo.com. And of course through Facebook and Instagram as mentioned before.  I'm not hard to find if you look around and I do have multiple email addresses.

I have a little dog name Wiggles that is part pug, part Chihuahua, and part weenie dog. I Call her my my chugeenie!  Here's a picture of her, you will learn to love her. She is the best art helper ever. 


That kind of sums it up for the moment except that I'd like to put up a few pictures.  Feel free to let me know how you feel about what you see here.   

An abstract watercolor peacock !


Here is a colorpencil bird of paradise. 


And another abstract. 


This is a stylized Lotus done with acrylic paint and teenie weenie brushes on plywood. 

I will probably set up a schedule for the regular posting so that you know when they're coming soon. Right now I'm still trying to figure out how to do all of this without a desktop computer. Things are a lot different on an iPhone let me tell you.

So keep watching because I will keep posting and soon I will get better at this and be on a schedule of some sort.

Marsha and Wiggles signing off for now.
