The Word Shoppe, Forever Mine, Trish MacQueen
Welcome to The Shoppe...
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to my online home...“The Shoppe”. The Shoppe is the name of the building that houses my art studio and gallery, my writing office, and my publishing house, and my professional writing service.
As a freelance artist, author, entrepreneur, and illustrator, I am living my dream and loving it. Each day brings a new adventure with plenty of growth opportunities. Nothing could be better for a creative, free spirit like me.
I am married, a mother to two children, a wonderful son and daughter, and a grandmother to five children, two grandsons and three granddaughters.
I live in the small rural Hamlet of Belgrave, in Ontario, Canada. My home is the former “Women’s Institute Hall”, which I am in the process of converting into my home, office, and studio...it is a labour of love!
My home is surrounded by plenty of countryside, which suits my creative needs and energies, allowing me to keep in touch with what is important to me...friends, family, and building lasting relationships.
Often, I am found travelling down a dusty country road with my digital camera in tow, taking pictures I wish to paint, or pictures for the next story I wish to tell.
I am best described as a small town girl, with big city dreams. As they say, you can take the girl out of the country, but you cannot take the country out of the girl.
I hope you enjoy your visit to “The Shoppe”.
Sincerely,
Patricia (Trish) A. MacQueen
What's Happening at The Shoppe
This year is promising to be an exciting one with many new and interesting changes now taking place at The Shoppe. The month of February, at The Shoppe, is about updating the website and adding all the new and exciting events, classes, courses, exhibitions, and open houses that will be offered to the public in 2010.
This year will also be used to introduce artisans, authors, and the general public to my new online stores and shops, each one designed to share ideas and concepts with anyone who stops by for a visit. This is a year of great expansion and growth.
