there's a lot for me to be thankful for right now. my best friend is doing so well and on her way to recovering fully from surgery (THANK YOU so much for all of your kind wishes!). her healing has really made me appreciate absolutely everything going on in my life right now. so much so that i realized i haven't taken a moment to sit back with a cup of tea and really honor all of this good news.
TITLE: Fresh from the Ocean. Prints available in my etsy shop.
i was lucky enough to meet with someone last week about exhibiting my art at a local restaurant and ended up hanging an entire show at their brand new coffee + bakehouse last weekend! i'd love for you to stop by! if you're in the area, here's all of the details!
it's amazing just how quickly things can fall into place. especially once you put your intentions out there. and i cannot tell you how excited i am about this show!
i mean, it's a completely wonderful space that's now filled with over thirty-five of my paintings! and brian and i work so well together (he was so super sweet to take a sunday afternoon and help me set everything up). it really all went so easily and made me even more excited about the other exhibitions and openings i have coming up later this year!
THEN, i got this wonderful surprise email from someone i totally admire, and we just might be working on a top secret project together very soon! i cannot wait to share all of the details on that with you!
AND i decided to attend my very FIRST art retreat! I am so happy to be going to An Artful Journey next February and just cannot wait to meet so many of the wonderful and amazing people I've been connecting with online. Not to mention all of the artists that will be there that I haven't even met yet!
It took a bit to decide which art retreat to attend, since every single one I read about I wanted to be a part of, but allowing myself to even go on an art retreat took a lot of getting out of my head. Sometimes my mind kicks in and tries to rationalize it all and thinks, "why on earth do you need to go on an art retreat in California?" Ah, because it's an art retreat in California. Of course! And I just cannot wait!
