Blue Orange Green Pink Purple

Hi! Welcome to my blog.

I'm Tanya Back, an artist of whimsy. My primary mediums include painting, photography, digital art, and mixed media collage. My themes reveal the expression of the human experience, the ethereal world of the spiritual, the fantasy of dreams, and the whimsical nature of it all. Whether I'm holding my paintbrush, my camera, or my laptop – I am consumed by the visual exclamation of life! Please take a look at my website: www.tanyaback.com. And if you have an extra second, you'll love my husband's jammin' music site: www.johnnyback.com.

I've gotta tell you, my kids are the bomb!! It's incredible to see your children explore their talents, create, succeed, grow. It is truly one of the most rewarding things in this world to see them actually utilize their skills and talents! So many people forget about their talents -- they find them useless, they pack them up in a suitcase, store them in the back of their minds, and simply never see them again. What a waste! If you have a talent, it's for a purpose. Whether your talent is in medicine, in education, in entertainment -- everything has a reason and has a place in this world. One's skill and talent in chemistry is no more important that another's talent for writing or music. Just different. Embrace your talents and you'll find the secret to enduring and enjoying life.

Here' a video of my son -- starring in Willy Wonka a couple of months ago (as Willy Wonka). He's my comedian of the family, the one who repeats Saturday Night Live skits and entertains us every other night with some new song. All three kids are just a complete joy. . . more to come on the others at a later date. While they all shine, this one's for him -- I'm proud of you buddy!!! You made me cry, laugh, smile, and beam with pride -- I play these videos all the time for friends!! You really rocked the stage, you always do. You're incredibly confident and sure of yourself -- don't ever doubt your talent and your road in life, no matter what your direction! Remember what John says: "Have faith, and faith will follow!"
