Magnolia sketch number 4 and pencil drawing by Gloria Poole of Missouri and Georgia

I, Gloria Poole, of Missouri and Georgia, am putting two new sketches I completed today on this blog of mine. I tweeted yesterday that I was attempting to sketch again a magnolia blossom. They are one of my favorite flowers and the magnolia tree in full bloom is one of GOD's most awesome experiences because the blooms smell wonderful.  I have tried several times to draw and paint magnolias. It is not easy for me to do. The petals are sort of waxy looking and a cream color. So far, I have not accomplished it my satisfaction but this is my most recent attempt. Michelango the famous artist who painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling [I am not catholic but know of most major artists' works] in his life story said that if you draw an object or image one hundred times you get good at it. So, this is about my fourth attempt to draw and then paint magnolias.  You will be able to see the previous sketches I drew and painted and photographed on my blog at https://gloriapoole.blogspot.com, scroll through archives because I have put a ton of art I created on that blog for YEARS. 

"Southern Magnolia" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri; acrylic on paper, 2-April-2014

This second sketch is a pencil drawing on paper that I drew as a rough draft preliminary sketch of an idea. I am adding it here because I always draw free-hand and sometimes I refine the sketches and sometimes I paint them and photograph them and upload them. I will most likely improve this sketch later and paint it and rephotograph it.

Copyright Notice: I, Gloria Poole, residing in Missouri but born in state of Georgia, own this blog and all rights to it. I created it to begin with, years ago [but modify it intermittently] , and have continued it after I moved to Missouri Oct 31, 2009.  I own all rights to this blog and to all content of it. I created the art and signed it, that I put on it,and photographed it;and uploaded it to this blog. I have the original paintings and sketches.  I also own all rights to any art, words, graphics  I have created or do create in any place, for any reason or no reason, with any tool or method or brush  on any surface, at any time. I have never assigned my copyrights to any one and I do not have an artist's rep or a literary agent at this time and have never had either [in the past].  I sign my name on art as Gloria, and on some sketches as Gloria Poole. Gloria Poole is my real, born with, legal name since I resumed it legally after my 2nd divorce which was in Arapahoe County Colorado. I removed the Pappas name from my name forevermore by order of District Court Judge at time of final decree of divorce from male DBP in Oct 2007 who lives in Colorado; and I resumed my maiden name including my surname of Poole. I moved to Missouri on Oct 31, 2009.  I am also known on the web as; gloriapoole; Gloria as on art such as this which I signed when I  completed it; gloria.poole; gloria-poole; gloria0817; gpoole817; gloria_poole; gloriapoole1749; gloriapoole.RN; gloriapooleRN at yahoo in which the RN means standard abbreviation for Registered Nurse; and as artist-gloria; artist-gloriapoole; gloriapoole-paintings; Poole, Gloria; Ms. Gloria Poole; Gloria Poole creator of words that WORK and Tapestry of LIFE;   and as other variations of my real, born with, legal name of Gloria Poole. And I am known as G-L-O-R-I-A on http://gloriapoole.wordpress.com and I had three domains with much art I created with my name written that way, for about 6 yrs until they were stolen from me by cyberthugs.  I also had many domains and many with my very name written as gloriapoole in them from years 2004-2011 when criminals broke into my web-hosting accounts and ripped my domains and content right out-of-admin-panel.  I have not bought domains since , because there is no security on web-hosting 'packages" because  they do not honor business law or contract laws or any laws that I can tell since web-hosting companies do not try to stop cyber-criminals.

For the record: I am white, single again [divorced twice], woman with brown hair, Southern Baptist /Great commission *Christian, and the mother of two grown "children" who are daughters named Jennifer and Leigh. I am also a Registered Nurse licensed in Missouri; and an artist in all artists' mediums; and a blogger, tweeter, poet, author of children's book, and citizen journo; and photographer. I was born in the state  of Georgia and am a US citizen by birth so I have all Constitutional protections including the First Amendment right to publish, speak, write, protest and the right not to associate with ungodly in general and  atheist perverts in particular, or with violent murderous people or with alcoholics or with d-r-ug-a-d-d-ic-t-s [spelled to try avoid being labeled as wrong sort of person by political censorship on the prowl].

Also, for the record: I have other blogs that I put art I create on and each blog is different;  and some of those are:

Gloria Poole; at my apt in Missouri which is my only residence and which is not shared; 2- March-2014 at 10:00am.
Update on 3 April 2014 at 2:51pm by me Gloria Poole because I had to reset my password and security two days in row. So I am adding this as my way of identifying this site as one of my blogs that I have had for about 8 years. This is not a shared blog nor a shared apartment nor a shared isp account nor a shared name. Gloria is my real name and the numbers have significance and it is the way I wrote my name on some blogs and sites of mine since about 2003.  I, Gloria Poole, of Missouri and Georgia , painted this 'signature" to use as my header but cyber-hackers at remote enlarged it to poster size, so I am putting it here to identify this as my blog. Also, reminder that I am a US citizen born in the state of Georgia and am not an employee of anyone, but blog, paint, sketch, draw from my own private apt in Missouri for my own goals and purposes. there is no one else authorized to log in to any account of mine on the web but ME! 

The Leonine life sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri and Georgia.

"The Leonine life" sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri & Georgia on 12-March-2014.    Leonine means "strong, fierce, majestic" according to dictionary. 

For those of you who have no education in health professions, the black graphic at bottom is a drawn electrocardiagram to diagram the resting phase, the spark from the SA node  and then the  contraction of the left ventricle of the heart. In other words, a heartbeat as shown on paper according to the electrical activity of a beating heart.  The star at head indicates a living, thinking brain. 

This is one of two sketches I drew and painted today.  And I put the one I drew and painted yesterday and signed and named "Chincoteague wild horses' on my blog at https://gloriapoole.blogspot.com.  You can see my photos of me on the about me page of that blog. I have 2 sketches I drew, painted, signed since this past weekend yet to upload, so might do that later. 

Copyright Notice: I,  Gloria Poole, currently living in Missouri, but born in the state of Georgia, own all rights to this blog and always did. It always belonged to me and the name gloria0817 also always belonged to me. Criminals broke into web-hosting accounts of mine in the years 2008 and then again in 2011 to steal my domains and content, but that does not authorize them on any account of mine nor to use or display content I created without my consent.  I own all rights to any art I created at any time, in any place for any reason, with any method or tool whether or not I photograph it, and whether or not I display it publicly anywhere.  That is also true of words I write and photographs I photograph.  I sign my name usually as on art I create similar to as I signed it on this sketch today; with my first name written in paint by me and the year I painted it. I often but not always put more info on the back of it, such as where I painted it, the exact date I finished it, and what mediums I used and my full signature,. I am also known on the web as: gloriapoole; gloria0817; gpoole817; gloria.poole; gloria-poole; gloria_poole;  Gloria Poole, RN; gloriapooleRN; gloriapoole.RN where the RN means standard abbreviation for Registered Nurse; onlineeducatorglo; artist-gloriapoole; gloriapoole-paintings; Poole,Gloria; Ms Gloria Poole; and other variations of my real , born with and legal name of Gloria Poole. 

For the record, I am a white,  brunette, single again [divorced twice] , Christian, woman, and the natural mother of two grown daughters who are Jennifer and Leigh.  I am also a Registered Nurse licensed in Missouri, an artist in all mediums; a blogger, writer, poet, and the author of a children's book.  And I am a prolife U S citizen born in the state of Georgia with all Constitutional guarantees including the right not to associate with the ungodly.  I am also a republican as defined by the U S Constitution. Also, if you are trying to contact me, and your motives are not to harm me, you can call me on my landline telco phone in Missouri or on my cell phone numbers if you know them. Otherwise, email me. Also, this is not a shared apartment nor a shared blog, nor a shared isp acct  and I do not take messages for my 2nd exhusband. I do not communicate with him and he was never authorized on any web-hosting acct of mine nor on any email of mine.  If he stalks me on web, he will go to prison hopefully.

Mack n Sax sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri and Georgia

Mack n Sax sketch by Gloria Poole of Missouri and Georgia; acrylics on paper; 2-March-2014

I drew and painted this sketch today and it's not perfect I know. I am trying to learn how t paint musical instruments. For another example of my effort to learn to draw and paint musical instruments, see another blog of mine at: https://real-women-have-babies.blogspot.com.  I am drawing almost every day, trying to learn skills enough to draw and paint complicated, elaborate paintings. In the real women have babies sketch I did not draw in fake people as I did on this sketch. So this was effort to combine inanimate objects with [not real] people. In this photo that I photographed on my easel with paintings and wall in background, I realize the saxaphone doesn't look very realistic. It's a redo!

This is a mixed media sketch of graphite, watercolors [the drum set] and acrylics. I made up the name to put it on the "wall" of the set on a pretend stage. These are NOT real people and there is no such band as "Mack and Sax" or "mack n Sax". Also, fyi, I created an entirely new log to put series of paintings and or sketches that I create on. It's located :
https://mini-exhibition.blogspot.com, and at the moment it has the most recent ethnic paintings in the series ethnic paintings, that I painted since about August of last year to January this year.

I created it to begin with, years ago, and have continued it after I moved to Missouri Oct 31, 2009.  I own all rights to this blog and to all content of it.

Public Notice to Tumblr: NO, I do not transfer my copyrights to you!

Public Notice that I am planning to stop using tumblr blog of mine  and retreive my intellectual property from them because of the changes in their terms and conditions; and to notify them publicly as I also did privately that I do NOT transfer the copyrights of the art I created and put on my tumblr before the terms and conditions were changed recently. My tumblr is: https://gloriapoole.tumblr.com . I also do NOT consent to the transfer of my copyrights of the art on it to anyone! For any reason.

This is what I sent to them [with a bit more identifying info  that public doesn't need to know]: I am quoting myself on their web form:
"To tumblr: Quote from ur terms & conditions: "When you provide Subscriber Content to Tumblr through the Services, you grant Tumblr a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable right and license to use, host, store, cache, reproduce, publish, display (publicly or otherwise), perform (publicly or otherwise), distribute, transmit, modify, adapt (including, without limitation, in order to conform it to the requirements of any networks, devices, services, or media through which the Services are available), and create derivative works of, such Subscriber Content. "
IF this is true, then it is a radical change and not acceptable to me..."

I am posting this  publicly for obvious reasons --so that tumblr or its agents  and staff cannot hijack the photos of art that I created and have in my possession as tangible, real property of oils on canvas or sketches on paper or bristol board.  I create much art and I like to allow others to view it, because I know Museums are often quite expensive for middle-class with children. But I am not transferring my copyrights to it at any time. I have posted copyright notices on that tumblr, and I guess they didn't like that because when I logged in today, to add new sketches, they put new terms and conditions and said I had to agree to them if I want to use their platform. I do NOT agree, indicated that on their form and in writing and again with this public notice.  I do NOT agree for other people to reap the rewards of art I create!

Copyright: I am Gloria Poole, also known as Gloria in real life and on oil paintings since I sign my given Christian name on them when I complete them in paint and in script [hand-writing]; and on some sketches as Gloria Poole signed by me; and also on the web as: gloriapoole; gloria0817; gloria.poole; gloria-poole; gloria_poole; gloriapoole1749; Gloria Poole; Gloria Poole,RN; gpoole817; and also artist-gloriapoole; gloriapoole-paintings; and other variations of my real, born with name of Gloria Poole.of Missouri own all rights to this blog, to the text of it, to the art I created and posted on it, to the photos I photographed and placed on it in digital form [and on my cameras or cell phones] and to my art I create or did create whether or not I display it anywhere. I currently live in Missouri but I was born in the state of Georgia.  I am white, Christian, single [divorced twice] woman, and the mother of two daughters who are Jennifer and Leigh. And a republican, prolifer, artist in all art mediums; and a Registered Nurse licensed in Missouri.
