While caring for her mother after her fathers death Sondra decided she wanted to keep her fathers old desk. “But i really didn’t care for it, old … but not quite old enough to be cool. I set about to paint it.” With some guidance from an old friend , the desk turned out great . So much so , she hardly could believe she had painted it . “This “old friend” of mine happened to have been an art director for many years , it was under his encouragement that “ReVamped by Theodore ” was created. Not believing myself to be good enough for the title of Artist , I had only ever considered myself a creative person. Once I made the decision to try this , it had to be nothing or all. So I have thrown myself into the business of Revamping . ”
It was her grandmother who got me started painting , as a little girl she gave her all her glass figurines and 50 cents to go to the corner store for a paint set. “After i finished with her figurines she gave me rocks to paint . I have seen things around me as potential paint projects ever since !” But for now she will stick to furniture ! And she am proud to say , Yes I am an Artist !!
