Time to Paint

Art Matters


This is  a fresh start. The past year and a half has been an exciting yet exhausting adventure of new ideas , new friends, and so many challenges.  In my 50's going back to school was a major  challenge. I often have crazy ideas , I think big , but when it comes down to it, practicality steps in and takes control.  This time I didn't allow the forces that reign in all my ideas take charge.  I am so close to finally receiving a graduate diploma in Art Therapy and pretty damn proud of that. My next step is a Thesis.
In the mean time I have worked in time to do my own art work. I must admit it has been difficult this past year but we must carve out time for things that matter ...and Art matters.

So what has been on the Easel????? Well after a lovely vacation in Gaspe, Quebec,  and over a hundred or more photos of Ganets , I  decided to paint them.





Bonaventure Island has a Ganet Colony that is unbelievable. What a gorgeous bird.




So here are a few smaller paintings I also worked on.                                                                                   


                                     


Continue to dream big, paint every day and remember that art really does matter. 


That is my mantra. Please leave a comment or sign up to follow blog.
Have a super day!
