“Love A Bull 2”

New Art Mixed Media Painting

Sharon Cummings

2014

For the career online artist, each day brings it’s share of bull.  All we really want to do is create.  There is an energy and freedom in the creative process that feeds our souls. Everything else is outside of our comfort zone.  We list and promote, but we’ve gotten used to that.  It’s the other stuff like Chinese sweat shops stealing our work including our names, so that when our collectors search they find us there.  Regular folks that take our work and put them on socks, t-shirts and mugs for their schools, business, etc.  The businesses that want to pay us pennies for our hard work.  Companies stealing patterns from your work for brush tools.  And the list goes on…

One could choose to focus on all of that crap and become depressed.  Or the choice can be to choose to love your job no matter what.  I have to make that choice every single day.  Still choosing L.O.V.E..

Growing up in Florida we had a few things to keep us entertained.  The biggest being football.  Yes, I am a Buccaneer fan even when they suck.   I was a Buc fan when they weren’t cool with their orange jersey’s with the wimpy little pirate.  But there is nothing like college football!  The crowds have a different feel….they are electric with energy.  Cars are decorated to the hilt and entire outfits reflect teams all the way to the face paint.  Gainesville Florida is only a skip away and I have always been a Gator fan.  My Dad used to take me to games (neither of my brothers liked football…go figure).  I always remember the rush of the kick off and the frenzy of touchdowns.  The smell of popped corn and hotdogs.  These are great memories for me and I still hold a torch for my favorite team!  “Swampy” is my tribute to the BEST teams in College Football!  And I know I am not alone because Mr. Swampy is well on his way to becoming my BEST SELLER!  Go Gators!
