I Am Artistic!

Good Morning poets and priestesses, dancers and divas. I'd like for you to meet Deana Diefenbach from rural "Big Sky" Montana. Not only is Deana gorgeous, she is ARTISTIC!

"I Am An Artist
I Am A Mama
I Am A Wife
I Am An Advocate
I Am...
I think being a Woman makes our "I Am" almost endless and ever changing.
Being an Artist keeps me sane; I must create. Being a stay at home Mama of three wonderful kids makes my life busy and rewarding. Being an Advocate for my daughter who has Aspergers adds a special privilege to that life. I paint as an expression of myself, something that is truly me and mine; it is my personal outlet. I volunteer at my children's school running different art programs and teaching students, and I donate to local environmental, women's and children's causes. I have recently started experimenting with and enjoying more "eco friendly" art, painting on objects that are recycled, or would normally be thrown away. I love creating: it is a necessity, a passion - it makes me a better person, Mom, and Woman. In the last couple years I have ventured into more of the business side of Art and in particular on line selling. Here is my main website http://www.etsy.com/shop/BELLACOSAART with its own "Art on Recycled Goods" section and here is my blog where people can find out more about me http://fineartbymattos.blogspot.com/ I love Josie's Optimism Plumping Lipgloss (great name by the way), for one it looks great but even better is the taste and smell!"

Thanks Deana! We're 'optimistic' that you'll love the free sample of Argan Oil that you'll be receiving for participating in the "I Am" Revolution. 

Want to be a part of it, too? Send your "I Am" photo and story to polly@josiemarancosmetics.com and we'll feature you on the blog and send you a deluxe sample of our 100% Organic Argan Oil! 

Apologies to our fans abroad, we can only ship to the United States at this time.

Love the whole blog, I know this young woman. And to me she is all that and more. She is my daughter and must let all know that I am so proud of her.

wow! I am a fan of Deana's art and of the way she lives her life. She always has a kind word to say and really makes me smile every time we chat in the ETSY.COM forums. I browse through her shop all the time to get inspiration and motivation to paint and create! Great blog feature. Great artist. Great.
