How It All Began

The pansy most powerful of flowers shown here in purple and white with a yellow center.

Being creative, passionate and entrepreneurial has always been my footprint. This new weblog, Alison*s Art is the home for the ventures that resulted from the steps I have taken in life. This weblog is an accumulation of my body of work, wealth of experience, knowledge and skills in three areas, ART | FOOD | HEALING. The time spanned is approximately thirty years to date.

The evolution of Alison*s Art into Alison*s Heirloom Projects has taken place in each of the three areas. These heirloom projects allow for the preservation of the original idea seeds, thoughts, concepts and results. They have provided a framework for the growth and added value in our present time.

My hope is that this foundational structure that has birthed the heirloom projects from the original Alison*s Art, will continue and allow for greater meaning in the future. The current ‘social media’ technology is ideal for preserving the original ventures, breathing life into the heirlooms as well as nurturing them now, so they will grow into whatever they are meant to be in the future.

  5. Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Opera.

    I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know.
    The layout look great though! Hope you get the
    problem fixed soon. Kudos

    Whats up this is kinda of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or
    if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    • This blog was created with WordPress.org. You do NOT need to know coding although WordPress.com is a bit easier.
      You can choose from tons of templates that you can customize. Start with the simplest approach and challenge yourself more
      as you get accustomed to it. I am always learning more about it.

    I leave a response when I especially enjoy a post on a
    site or I have something to contribute to the conversation.

    It’s triggered by the fire communicated in the post I browsed. And on this article How It All Began |. I was moved enough to post a thought :-P I actually do have 2 questions for you if it’s okay.

    Could it be only me or do some of the responses appear like
    left by brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing at
    additional online social sites, I would like to follow you.
    Could you list the complete urls of all your public sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

    for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire
    out a developer to create your theme? Exceptional work!

    • Thank you. I used a WordPress.org customizable template. There is a steep learning curve but it is the best program for doing blogs and sites I have found. I also have a background as a graphic designer so it is a great treat for me to be able to use so many images i.e., Pansy post. Good luck and thanks again.

    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied
    on the video to make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us
    something informative to read?

    Hi there, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks? If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me mad so any help is very much appreciated.

    • Yes, I do get quite a bit of spam. I thought there was supposed to be an app or something like that to keep it to a minimum. It may be part of JetPack. I am not sure. You’ll have to search around or keep asking other bloggers. Good luck.
