“Sweet Song”

Mixed Media Painting/Collage

Sharon Cummings

2014

So many changes are occurring in my life right now.  My body and mind are maturing as expected, but I am referring to other things.  My little girl is moving out onto her college campus this week (a room became available).  I am so proud of her as she has had to deal with Asperger’s, but is spreading her wings beautifully.  My husband is well integrated and delighted with his new position as department chair.  I am anticipating a move to a new city where ART is what is happening.  A move away from Tampa where art is just an afterthought.  Even though I enjoy my online artsy buddies, I look forward to lots of “in person” artist friends.  My artwork is evolving in so many ways and I have new ideas coming which will be unveiled next year.  I am getting recognition from big names like ABC (My artwork will be on Criminal Minds on November 26th!) and Hilton (See 45 of my pieces in a new resort in Islamorada, FL in the Spring!!)   I have finally made a healthy choice within my family relationships.  I have shed my extended dysfunctional family and my scapegoat role within it once and for all.  I can now focus on all that is dear to me. The healthy side of my life.  I feel like it has all come together into one sweet song…

“Parrot Head”

New Mixed Media Art Painting

Sharon Cummings

2014

I really couldn’t resist naming this guy “Parrot Head”.  After all it is both, literally and figuratively.  And I do live in paradise close to margaritaville.  I’ve got tropical shirts and a hammock.  I just need to turn on some Jimmy Buffet tunes and I can convince myself that it is 5 o’ clock somewhere. 😉

“Nature’s Chorus”

New Mixed Media Art Painting Based On Old Pen

And Ink Drawings From 25 Years Ago

Sharon Cummings

2014

I am still reincarnating some of my older work into newer pieces.  It’s so much fun to see these old renderings transformed into a brand new piece of art.  When I was sitting hunched over my drafting table all of those years ago painstakingly drawing lines, I had no idea that someday there were be a computer program that would allow me to colorize them using my original paintings.  Really technology rocks!

A Caged Bird S.I.N.G.S…

With the recent passing of Maya Angelou, I was inspired to go through my books and find a few of hers for a reread.  A favorite is “I know Why The Caged Bird Sings.”  It has been said that a caged bird sings because it wants freedom. I’ve had a bird and he sang whenever he was in his cage, but he also sang when he was freely moving around my home.  He sang on my shoulder as he nuzzled my ear. He sang when he was having his bath.   He even sang when he was eating.  In fact, the only time he didn’t sing was at night when I would cloak his cage in darkness.  Only then did all go quiet.  I believe we are all like birds.  We sing because we must.  Whatever your song is be it art, music, writing, cleaning, building things, dancing, speaking, etc. it is something that you MUST do.  A deep yearning within that moves you without thought.   I do not ask myself why I create art.  I simply do it.

Rest In Peace Maya…

Artists Gone Wild!!

Maybe this post isn’t as tantalizing as “Girls Gone Wild” but us artists do have a tendency to let go sometimes and just create without boundaries.  I love painting fish and birds with a tropical flair, but I usually know in advance that I will be painting them.  This piece titled “A Rare Bird” is one of those pieces that seemed to paint itself.  I just started slinging paint and lo and behold a bird appeared.  I love these moments in creativity.  I’ve learned to just go with it….It’s a wild ride!
