Thank you for stopping by my little corner of the web. Although I feel like I have contributed to more than just a corner on the internet. My name is Mary Beth but most of my friends and family call me MB. I am a work at home mom. I host and design websites from my home office, so I can stay home with my 4 1/2 yr old son. I enjoy being able to stay at home with him. (And a baby on the way in October) I am the webmaster for OneStroke.com, TheStrokingEdge.com and MDChildrensFoundation.org As well as a webmaster for over 100 other clients all over the United States and Canada including many other OSCI websites. I love what I do! Not only am I a web designer I enjoy to One Stroke paint. I have been painting pretty much all of my life. Starting with Water Colors in Kindergarten. I have been involved with some form of art, from watercolors, crafting, graphic arts, graphic and web design. I even enjoy a bit of interior designing and constantly working on my house. 

Here are a few of the water color paintings I did in Kindergarten.
(Yes, when I was 5 yrs old)

I live in Altamonte Springs, Florida with my wonderful husband of almost 8 years and my son whom will be 5 in October and my 4 cats & 2 Dogs (beagle & welsh corgi)!. (Central Florida) Known to many OSCI's as Dewberryland. HAHA! I grew up with the Dewberry's as they pretty much lived across the street from my parents neighborhood, and my sisters and I attended school with them. It is a wonderful opportunity for me to be able to learn this great painting method that Donna has inspired so many with! 

I attended the One Stroke Certification in November 2000 in Altamonte Springs, FL and became a One Stroke Certified Instructor. To be honest, I really never "tried" to hard at painting. It comes naturally, and it is a real stress reliever for me. I enjoyed the Certification and improved on the areas that I was weak in. I then attended the Continuing Education in March 2001 in Atlanta, GA, where I met many WONDERFUL people. And hope to see more in the CE 2003 here in Orlando Florida.

Thanks, and hope to meet you soon!

Always Painting,

Mary Beth
