About Arianna

Introduction:

I was born in Farmington, NM and now live in Kennewick, WA. My childhood was full of wonderful outdoor free play, and seemingly unlimited drawing time!

Interests:

I have soooo many interests honestly I’m just going to name a few of my favorites! Arts that involve up-cycling things, minor home and decor renovations, furniture refinishing, gardening, fermenting and making foods from scratch, nature study, watercoloring, building an extensive home library of living books, homeschooling my kids with Charlotte Masons methods... and teaching Art in our homeschool co-op.

Favorite Movies:

I haven’t owned a tv since 2009! I prefer reading or activities to watching shows... however, if I must pick a favorite theme it would be movies based on true stories and documentaries of all kinds. Okay, and going way back my all time favorite show would be Mr.Rogers’ Neighborhood.

Favorite Music:

I really enjoy folk songs, especially Irish folk songs! I picked up an accordion at an estate sale and now have yet another awesome hobby!

Favorite Books:

I’ve historically been interested in non-fiction books addressing psychology, relationships, trauma, healing therapies, child training, teaching and nurturing. However, after homeschooling for several years I’ve branched into classics and fiction. The Maisie Dobbs series by Jacqueline Winspear is my most recent favorite! I’m in three book clubs locally, The Well Read Mom, The Daughters of Liberty, and one on Charlotte Mason philosophy and application.

Oh, and I love giant mugs of strong English black tea with lots of cream!
