Hello, I'm Adelle R.

Hello​,​ My name is Adelle​,​ and I have been ‘creating’ things on paper since I could hold a pencil in my hand. As young as I can remember I had said I wanted to be an artist when I grew up. I always had a crayon in my hand and was drawing something for someone. I never was one to keep my own ‘creations’​,​ I prefer to give them away. To share the happiness​,​ I feel when I draw. When I got into my older kid years​,​ I started to drop the idea of being an artist​,​ you know​,​ a “starving artist”. So​,​ I kind of just kept it as an escape. It literally is the only place I can go to escape and not have my mind wondering. It’s the best time I can control my imagination and bring something to life. I use my art to channel my inner emotions. I never was committed to taking art classes or teaching art or trying to “get better”. I would just​,​ draw. Sit and forget to blink​,​ with a tear running down my cheek and realizing that blinking was important. That’s how much I would get into my drawing. But I never finished anything. I started to realize that’s my thing​,​ I never finish it. I eventually kind of just stopped drawing​,​ I stopped using it as an escape. I forgot I even knew how to draw​,​ for the last 10 years I took a hiatus. This last year I have been having the urge to pick up that pencil again​,​ but I didn’t until recently. I found a new means - this means has me hooked and I CAN’T STOP. It’s as though the flood gates has opened​,​ and I feel like I found a purpose to my art again. I am excited to start sharing my art with people. I never was one to share that I even knew how to draw or would tell people I was an artist. I hid my creativity​,​ but I have come to realize that it is a huge part of who I am. Since I could hold a pencil... I hope you enjoy my inner mirrors that I am sharing with all of you! Much love​,​ Adelle
