You create something beautiful of course!  It’s not just lemonade. 😉  I have been super busy working on my licensing partner’s requests and commissions.  I also have an upcoming show scheduled for March 2nd here in Tampa (more on that soon).  But I still find time to create as it is a MUST for my soul.  It clears my mind and calms my heart.  Please enjoy my latest art!

I have always had a fascination with light and shadow.  In my latest work titled “Violet Blue” I have used aqua as light and violet blues as shadow to create depth and dimension.  It has a fluidity as well that evokes a sense of watery movement.  Sit back for a moment and relax your eyes and just let your vision get absorbed into the light….feel the calm energy that fills your mind….

It’s A Jubilee!

Like most artists, I am most happy when I am creating.  When it comes to the selling part it takes a great mental effort to “enjoy” the process.  It is tedious and monotonous to do computer work. Listing and promoting.  Listing and promoting.  Answering emails.  Ordering supplies.  If only a wealthy patron would sponsor me so all I had to do was paint and create all day without even considering the business of selling art.  While I am still waiting for that fantasy to come true, I soothe myself with those moments of utter jubilant joy when I can escape the dirty work and just create.  O.k., painting is dirty too, but a good kind of dirty. 😉  

Please enjoy my latest painting titled “Jubilee”.  It was a real treat to create!

Sometimes you just gotta get fresh!  I have been promoting past works heavily lately for the Holiday season and I have been painting custom work based on much older pieces.  I love working with all of my creations, but sometimes I really need to create something new.  After avoiding yellow for many years due to emotional reasons, I have found that it is showing up a lot lately.  Something really bad happened to me that I used to associate with the color, so it is refreshing to see my soul embracing this light and life giving hue.  Today I offer you some fresh lemons….I can almost smell them….

Just For Me…

Just for me….A Garnet Sea.  I took yesterday to create work for my soul….just expressing what “I” wanted to feel.  A break from the custom work and show pieces….Felt so good!  And now I share it with you….

I’ve got a birthday next month and I will be turning 45.  I’m not old, but I am also no longer young.  I am in the middle….middle aged as they say.  I knew my body would start changing in my 40’s but what I never expected was for my attitudes to change dramatically.  My mental state is undergoing the most transformation. Things that used to drive me crazy, no longer do.  I am calm and at peace in so many situations now that used to get me totally worked up.  I am patient with my daughter.  I appreciate my husband a whole lot more.  I am just more clear on what’s important in life.  I woke up this morning realizing that for 45 years ALL of my needs have always been met.  Sometimes that meant peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and a game of Go Fish for a date. Sometimes it meant The Ritz.  And there were times when I had to wait long periods of time to get some things I needed.  I’ve had to work hard for sure and at times have enjoyed luxuries that as a kid I could only dream of.  And also times where I had to sell everything I could to get groceries.  My life has always given me everything to sustain me….in the good times and the bad.  Right now one of the biggest changes I am feeling is with my art.  I no longer see it as just a means to an end.  Income.  Don’t get me wrong, I like making enough to support myself and help my family, but I am feeling the joy in creating more and the satisfaction of making people happy.  I am here to bring joy to other’s hearts.  As history has proven, my needs will always be met, so I do not have to worry all of the time about making a “sale”.  Here is to change!

I’ve been playing with The Looking Glass again….and oh boy what did I find!  Who are these creatures?  Red guardians over a sacred moth.  My daughter said they looked like weasels.  What do you think?

And then this guy appeared…a beautiful blue eyed fish.  And if you look closely in the center you can also see a wise owl.  Or perhaps you see something entirely different in these pieces….The Looking Glass is for your own imagination too. 🙂
