about me

Hi everyone...

I would like to introduce my self.. My name is Judy Richards I am a 52yr old  wife, mother and grandmother... I live in a town called Mount Gambier, Australia

I have been married to Peter nearly 27yrs next February. I have 3 beautiful daughters Raquel 33, Bo-Louise 30, Megan 28.... I also have six amazing grandchildren Brooklyn 10, Chelsea 7, Layla 3 1/2, Judd 3,Stevie 1 & India 1... they are my pride and joy...
My husband and i have been together for 31yrs.. we have lived in the same house since then....
I have lived in Mount Gambier my whole life... i was born in a small town 1/2 hour from the Mount called Millicent... I come from decent size family as the oldest with four younger brothers... ( yes the only girl) I didn't have the best up bring but i turned out ok ... ( I believe your make your own choices in life good or bad)
My mother always inspired me to be the best person i could be.. I miss her heaps she died when she was 48. I have always challenged myself in alot of things. I was never the brightest kid in school  but I always loved to read and draw as a child.. so I have tried many things over the years... from cross-stitch, dress making, quilting, painting ( folkart and decorative painting) I did many of these things as a living I would go from market to market selling my stuff...

In 2003 I decided that the craft industry was just getting too hard and that I wasn't financially doing well.
So I decided to become a Nail Tech which I love doing and have been doing for nearly 14yrs now.
As a Nail Tech sometime life gets really busy... I found I wasn't doing much to relax and have some me time.

In 2013 I came across Zentangle on the internet... never heard of it in Australia so I started to search more and see what it was all about...

my first Zentangle

This was my first Zentangle and I was hooked... I just got so lost in the world of paper and pen....

I loved it so much that I challenged myself to do some masterpieces. ( never one to do anything by small measures).. so here I am.. want to share with you all my passion ....

I know I'm not on here enough at times but I will share with you when i have the free time..

Happy Tangling
