About Me

"The biggest mistake people make in life is not making a living at doing what they most enjoy. -
Malcolm S. Forbes (1919-1990)"

I started this website for a very important reason: my hobby, which is PAINTING.
Leave me with colors, something to draw on, and I won't get bored!!...

But...let's start with the beginning: As a kid I painted a lot, but as strange as it might seem, in my teens, I was attracted more towards Science than Art. Looking back in time, I don't regret my decision, but my passion then, and now - after some forty years is still painting.

Over years, as time went by, I made a family, and the three of us( me, my husband and my son) immigrated to Canada. You can imagine that it took us some time to get used with our new home and country. Now, that things settled down, I went back to what I enjoy most. Having an "artistic eye"(as my friends say), I decided also to explore a little bit more "wall decor", and that blended quite well with my passion for art!

From Hobby To Business

I wanted to be able to share my ideas about wall decor, and of course to be able to find a way where I could advertise my artwork. While there are many ways you can market your artwork, I looked at the possibility of building a website, too.

A website??? You will say. "Do you know anything about web design, or about online businesses, or online Marketing?" These were the questions I didn't have an answer for.

Although I was thrilled to start a new business, I knew it will be hard to be found on the Internet, specially for somebody like me: no web experience whatsoever, practically a "newbie", as my son teases me.

To keep my story short, during my journey in finding a way to built a website, I found "Get-Rich-Quick" schemes, websites that would "help" you earn thousands of dollars in the first week if you will sign with them, and so on, and so on...

Then I came across Site Built It!

After everything I had read and researched on it about running a successful on-line business, I decided to use it...It encouraged me the fact they have a "money back guarantee policy" and 30 days free trial period. And...no regrets so far!

That's how I started to create my own destiny-path in building my own on-line business...

How Was It Possible?

SBI! has all of the tools necessary to create a successful website and they teach you how to use them, either you have a real product to sell, a passion or you want to share the knowledge about your favorite hobby.

You can build a site that works, too.See all these people? They are all different, with different skills, lives and stories to tell.

What do they have in common?? They found SBI.

Back to Me

Where I am now?
I sell my paintings, and that's one of my goals, but in the mean time...I'm learning the business of having a website and everything related to it: write pages, upload photos of my paintings, brainstorm, write content for our visitors, edit, preview, delete, do more research to find more information, write more content...

Magic? No. Hard work? Yes.

...but

...My Dream is here and it's happening!

Even if you don't know how to decorate your walls, or you don't know anything about art, FOR SURE you have a HOBBY, a PASSION you can share it with the world!

The Best Part Of It?...as my website grows, so do I, and so it does my online business.
SBI changed my life and I hope it will change yours, too...

To your success,
