artist, cooking, wrtiting

I am a 67-year-old lady who lives in Paris On CA. I have three wonderful children. 2 son in-laws, 1 daughter in law who are just like my own. 2 grandchildren a 27-year-old grand-daughter and a 7-year-old grandson. Ron and I have been married 48 years. Until a major car accident 40 years ago that took my livelihood away I was a hairdresser, make up artist and model. After listening to my hairdressing stories for a million times, my son-in-law David suggested I write about them so I did. And so “A Hairdresser’s Diary” was born.

I have written poems for as long as I can remember. My book “Say It With A Poem” has 50 of my original pieces.

I started painting first on clothing then walls, wood and stone finally on canvas. This is my way of dealing with my daily chronic pain. Most of my poetry is accompanied with my own original art.

I would like to share some of my stories. I will make you laugh, cry, feel sympathy for some, dislike others. You will learn things about the hairdressing world you may have never thought about. My short story “A Cut Above Discrimination” will make you think.

Next time you visit your hairdresser you may look at her or him in a whole new light.
