TOP SELLING ARTIST AT HARMONY ARTS FESTIVAL, 2011

Thank you to Harmony Arts Festival organizers, attendees, fellow artists and, most importantly, customers of mine!  This photo of me holding my “Sales Board” shows only a portion of the 32 paintings I sold during the 4 day ‘Art Market’.

The memories I will treasure most from the weekend include the connections I made with people as we discussed the meaning behind some of my paintings, (in particular, a conversation I had with a gentleman about my “Genesis” series of paintings).  I will forever cherish the interpretation he shared with me!

For 20 years I have diligently studied and refined my artistic talents.  The journey has been full of challenges, and the 2011 Harmony Arts Festivalrepresents a highlight in my career.

As an artist that “paints from her heart“, every time I show my work publicly, I experience a feeling of vulnerability that words can’t quite define.  I am filled with a sense of anticipation – and a deep yearning – to ‘let loose’ my creativity in response to the positive feedback I received last weekend.   The resulting works will be a ’thank you’, in part, to each of you who were inspired by my work, and were moved enough to share this with me.

Living life ‘on purpose’ is something I strive to do each and every day.  To know that my art is profoundly impacting people, confirms to me that I am doing what I was created to do.   So, it’s back to the drawing board (easel), to replenish my inventory that was substantially depleted last weekend…..this is the kind of challenge I love to be faced with!
