Description One little turtle sittin' on a log, All the others jumped off and went for a jog. He must have been too young to know better and so he stayed and got his picture taken--and now he is famous. I find turtles so amusing. They like to congregate on the logs in the lake in big numbers and rest or maybe they talk. They are fun creatures.
Penny Pausch, Jonesboro Member Since February 2012 Artist Statement I grew up way back in the hills of Missouri (U.S.). I was a country girl and loved every moment of it. My sister and I did not have many toys and so we played outside on trees and other things in the woods and learned to use our imagination. This has become an asset to me. I knew by the 5th grade that I wanted to be an artist more than anything else. I like to paint, sew, minipulate objects so that they are interesting, cook, and write poetry. One of my goals is to write a poetry book and illustrate it. I recently have gone back to college after 17 years of raising my children.
