The Perseverance Rule a blog about finding Outsider Art — All Thing BA Art, where you can shop for Whimsy Art by BA, Natural Healing Stones Jewelry, Crochet and Pottery

The Perseverance Rule, Outsider Art is about not giving up!

The perseverance rule is a very valuable rule to learn and follow. I think I have pretty much gone through life outside of a box. As a younger person, I was never really in, with the “IN” crowd. I might of had a brief moment where I fit into a genre in high school but that was mainly due to the music I was listening to. Other than that, I kinda just moved to my own beat… I think. hahaha, There is that memory issue!

The Journey to Outsider Art

Anyway, lately I have noticed that Natural Healing Stones Jewelry is morphing, or more to the point, I am morphing and my box is not budging. I am now not only into Jewelry but am delving into glass fusing, pottery and art. OH MY!

The art thing took me by surprise really. Most of you don’t know this but my first two years in college, I was an art major. The first year was great. My professors were digging what I was putting out and I thought I was the bomb. Those were the ONLY classes I was making A’s and B’s in, I thought I had found my niche.

Then year two came, the year I decided to be politically outspoken. I didn’t much care for an overly liberal comment from a professor and had the gumption to say so. From then on my art work was deemed D/F worthy. WHAT?!?! That is how I discovered, I do art for myself. I decide what I like and don’t like. I realized I didn’t much care for creating to please someone, just so that I could get a good grade. Then I had my accident… hahaha, another blog. Ahhh, the synchronicity of it all.

Firsts, BA writes her first blog. Prepare yourselves!

FIRTSTS a first blog by B.A.

Kinda crazy cool that we can have a last and never run out of firsts. Hmmm, as my coffee takes hold, I do see the flaw in that thinking but I choose to look at the world of firsts and see all of the adventure it holds.

FIRSTS, Blogging.

This is a first for me and starting with the first, I would like to apologize for my grammar! And… I just noticed through the help of apologize and grammar that this thing comes with spell check. Whew. It’s completely insane, that as I get older, these two things are vanishing from my brain cells at an alarming speed.

Anyway, I digress, back to firsts. Blogging, It’s a total first for me. I have been putting it off, thinking that; nobody wants to hear me ramble on and I’m pretty sure it’s damn near impossible to figure out what’s going on inside of my head. However, I seem to get some sort of personal enjoyment out of having my say in things or more to the point, just saying anything. So, here it is, the first BA blog.

Adventurous spirit, filled with the need to create, the stubbornness to do what she pleases (against all kinds of crazy odds) and now has the gumption to be heard.

Holy Flopping Torpedoes, may the force be with you and may you get to experience a first today! <3

P.S I will pledge to hold back on the dot, dot, dot (…) For some insane reason my brain feels the dot dot dot has way more power than a comma.

A first could be that you check out my All Things BA Art Shop!
