Janet of Graceful Rose
Hello, my name is Janet Greer. I have been painting for about 15
years off and on. I started painting when my husband and I moved from a
large city to a small town in Kentucky where he is from. I also love to
decorate. My husband, Leo and I have been married for 18 years and we
have remodeled 6 houses in that time. He rebuilds them and I decorate
them. We are quite a team. Our current home is what we call our
"retirement home" and we hope to stay in it in our retirement years. It
is a charming little yellow cottage, although it did not look like that
when we bought it. Like I said I have been painting for about 15 years,
my husband encourages me as when I married him, I could not draw a
straight line. God has blessed me with him and my talents without which
I couldn't do what I do. I have done several craft shows over the
years and have exhibited my art in many local venues and have been
fairly successful on a local level. Somewhere along the line, I started
painting vintage cake servers and now people come to the craft shows
looking for them. I have also sold several of my paintings through
local exhibitions and craft shows. It is so rewarding to have people
come back and tell you they love something they have purchased from
you.

Thank you for selecting me as member of the month.
It's so nice to meet you! I love your cake servers! Your rose paintings are so pretty and I love your tea things, especially the earrings. I enjoyed hearing your story of how you fixed up so many houses! It's great that your hubby is such a good handyman and strong encouragement to you! He's a keeper! It's such a pleasure to hear of your happy life together. Be blessed!
