Friday Feature - Thoughtful Art by Gina

Hello everyone!! My name is Gina Smith, otherwise known as Thoughtful Art by Gina.

I live outside of Atlanta Georgia with my college age daughter Megan and my puppy Henry. 

I am an art school dropout that has rediscovered my love for art.  After attending the Art Institute of Atlanta realized that I would have a difficult time making enough money to take care of my family, so I was thrown into the world of health insurance sales.

20years later I have finally decided what I want to be when I grow up.

I am a Mixed Media Artist that creates in all kinds of mediums, Acrylics, Watercolors, Pastels, Markers, Leather and Metals. 

I create canvas art as well as prints of most of my items.  I also have begun creating Hand Tooled and Hand-Painted Leather Cuffs. 

My motto is to "Create Art that speaks to your Soul".  I want my pieces to provide a spark and make you think for a bit.

My art is continuously evolving so I would love for you visit me from time to time to see my new creations.

I sell my art and take commission projects through Etsy at www.etsy.com/shop/thoughtfulart .

You can also visit me on my blog at www.thoughtfulartbygina.com or on Facebook at www.facebook.com/thoughtfulartbygina

I will be holding a give-a-way over on my blog beginning today.  If you leave me a comment on my current blog post anytime beginning today through Wed. July 4 your name will be put into a random drawing to win this beautiful Leather Cuff.  Drawing will be held and winner posted on Friday July 6.

So stop by and say hello, I would love to meet you.

Wishing you a creative day!!
