Gaga's Journey

A journal about aging, art, family, relationships, and lessons I've learned - or still need to learn.

I have to also say that I saw numerous encaustic portraits at the British Museum! What a lucky day!

I do believe that I may be a spoiled brat.

Here are examples of my encaustic art. I am excited about the resurgence of painting with hot wax, a passion of mine for the last several years.

Gaga: California, United States; I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. Of those things I am sure. I pretend to be an artist, and at times have worn the title of writer, teacher, business woman, counselor, good cook, care giver, and probably some others.In some of those efforts I have felt successful, in others, not so much. Now, at seventy, I still want to look forward and be productive. At the same time, as age takes it toll, I feel compelled to look back a bit. Feel free to join me on my journey of looking at life, aging, relationships, and my passions.
