BIG GRATITUDES

"Art is a journey to the center of one's being."

I have asked for and received some of my greatest wishes in life.  Creating art and also selling it!!
I have a sign above my work table with some of my favorite words, by Julia Cameron="Great Creator, I'll take care of the quantity, if You'll take care of the quality."


Until recently I have worked alone in my studio creating many, many works of art.  I am driven by thoughts in my head of images and words I wish to share.  Three years ago I quit working at my National Park Service job in order to create on a full time basis, (before it is "too late")!  That year I came home from Colorado and cleaned the slate.  I gathered and gave away many pieces of art. I felt their time had come to leave me.  I called and emailed my kiddoes and said if you want presents for your friends for giving as Christmas gifts, come and get them!  It was a wonderful sight to see my art pieces to go to loving homes.


I learned many years ago from my first spiritual mentors, Pat and Sid Fuselier, that for abundance to come to me, I had to make room for it.  I still have trouble believing how fast that emptiness was filled.  I have been creating new and different art ever since.  Art coming from a place of mystery and wonder!


I now have a solo show at The Acadiana Center for the Arts.  It is in the vault of what was originally a bank building, and from which the art center was repurposed.  The opening was a couple of weeks ago and I had a huge crowd, many of which really looked at my work and talked about it to me.  What a concept.  I love that.  The exhibit of 28 pieces will hang for two months and I will have another open house at Lafayette's next monthly Artwalk on March 12th.


I also have been accepted in the BIG EASEL, a yearly show in the town square at River Ranch.  Last night was a preview night at the Lounge gallery which is connected to the restaurant Tsunami, also in downtown Lafayette.  My work was accepted well there as well. 


I feel so filled with love and gratitude for all of my family and friends who have supported me in this "believable" adventure.


I hope you, too, clean your slate and fill it with your own most wished for adventure!
