I recently joined two local art associations.. as an introvert, this was totally out of my comfort zone. But, everyone has been so nice and I have throughly enjoyed it! One of them, the Singing River Art Association recently had their spring show. They made it sound like fun, so I decided to enter. I thought it would be a great experience and would help get me out there a little more. I was shocked when I got the phone call that one of my paintings had won an award. “Daydream Dust” won the Excellence in Abstract” award. I absolutely couldn’t believe it. It was an incredible feeling. It certainly isn’t about winning, as art is very subjective, but what a confidence boost!! I love to paint! I’m totally obsessed with color palettes, texture and expressing myself through art so this award meant a lot to me.
The show is over and now I’m making this painting available to you. I truly appreciate everyone who has been on this art journey with me encouraging and supporting me along the way! Sometimes, your daydreams really do come true and it feels magical! Whatever you are thinking of doing in life, put your doubts and fears aside and just go for it!
“It’s all about the color palette. The pinks, aquas, hints of blues and gold play nice with each other. Looking at it makes me feel like I’m tasting ice cream while chewing bubble gum.”
