Life can take a turn very quickly! I have had my world turn inside out and am just trying to get through everyday.
The heart can be broken into a thousand pieces but in the end I am told it does heal. 
The one thing I find that is steady in my life is my Art! If I didn't have that, I would truly fall apart. I am praying that my work will appeal to you my site lookers. I really could use the help right now. LOL
It is a great feeling to work on my art, my Abstracts, and have people tell me they admire what I do. 
If my life comes back together, which I am sure it will, my art is what I will be depending on to make somewhat of a living! This will be the start of a new life and I pray it will be wonderful. 
Thank you, everyone for viewing my work and enjoying it. :)

What a great feeling it is to say those words! I have had 4 paintings at the Genesis Place and business cards as well. I got an e-mail from a couple that were interested in my art. They have picked one and are picking it up on the weekend. I am over the moon! Art is all in the eye of the beholder. You will either love it or not. So when you have someone look you up and want to look at other work you have done it is such an awesome feeling.
To be able to say the words "It is Sold!" Is an amazing feeling but also a sense of pride. I am hoping this will be the start of many paintings done by myself, that I can say those words. :)

I can't believe that I have missed the whole month of July. Where did it  go? I am falling behind in many things and am feeling the pressure of not completing what I love to do, which is paint!

However on a very good note I have joined the Airdrie Regional Art Society, and have really enjoyed the group so far. A great bunch of people. I have had the opportunity to show two of my paintings over at the Bert Church Theater . They will be showing there until September 30th. It is a wonderful feeling to have ones work being hung on a Wall of a very important part of Airdrie's Art Community.

The members were awesome and they got together and made everything look so good. I was very proud to be in the midst of such wonderful Artists.

My next showing will be in Airdrie's City Hall. I will have two paintings hanging in one of the board rooms. What a great thrill this is as well.

Then in September I will rent a booth at Bert Church Theater and hopefully be able to sell some paintings. I am thrilled to be able to do this. Life is good!

Tomorrow is my 61st birthday! My only regret in life is that I hadn't started down this path many years ago. But life is what it is and I shall keep on for as long as I possibly can. :)

So, I am getting a painting ready to put into a show. The theme is Black and White. I have been so busy that I haven't done much of anything. I quickly grab a canvas and started in.

I had an image in my mind. Sometimes I don't. I started to paint and using my pouring medium I started to squirt some black and white onto the canvas. I expected it to blend like it usually does. Well - that did not happen this time. It kind of sat there, and sat there, and sat there.

I went upstairs and let the painting fairies do their thing overnight. LOL . I went down in the morning and low and behold nothing had changed ! Soo what  do I do now? I am not particularly fond of it but it is what it is. The painting obviously wants to stay this way! Who am I to try to control what this abstract wants to be? I feel like a Three year old could have done this. But, in the end, this piece is going into the show as is. It looks cool, as the sides are black. It stands out and wants to be known. The only thing left is to name it? Another dilemma! :)
