A Fine Feathered Nest Shabby Cottage Chic

My name is Debbie and I live in the beautiful state of Colorado. I was born and raised here with a brief stint in Omaha and Utah. I have three grown children and am enjoying life as an empty nester. Gives me more time to create!

I've been creating in one form or another since I was a small child. I did my first bedroom redecorating project when I was 8. I've always had a passion for creating beautiful surroundings with cast-offs and repurposed items, even before it was popular.

I began my Online journey back in 1996 with a WebTv. I learned how to write HTML and build websites and then I bought my first digital graphics program and learned to draw on the computer. My graphics site, Majestic Mountain Graphics was born in 1999. Some personal issues arose and I had to go offline for a time, but I came back again under the name Pollyanna Graphics and started over with a new site and a new style. I lean toward soft, feminine and vintage styles.

I didn't stop there in my creative journey. I discovered Etsy about a year ago and found a creative outlet for my love of sewing, crafting and decorative painting.

Before Etsy, I was selling my hand painted items on eBay. I leaned to paint by watching Donna Dewberry and her OneStroke painting method. Over time, I took the mechanical skills I had learned and created my own methods, turning them into a softer, more realistic style.

And so, here we are. You can find my work on Etsy, Zazzle and Pollyanna Graphics.com
