Making art now means working in the face of uncertainty; it means living with doubt and contradiction, doing something no one much cares whether you do, and for which there may be neither audience nor reward.

Another inspiring post Bridgette. I look forward to seeing the completed pieces though I’m loving these images (especially the top two) just as they are.
Thank you Robyn! A lot of paintings came together over the weekend. Patience is a virtue…..and some things are worth the wait. It’s hard at times not to just want to rush it all
enjoying your rich materials and how you touch them.

Thank you Judy. I have been enjoying the materials as well. my fingertips are happy
Oh so true…one must have a strong “constitution” if they are going to be an artist. Beautiful work!
Thanks Lisa. It’s tough. To have the sensitivity to be a creator, but to have the constitution to face the world with one’s creations!
So happy to catch up with you and see all the gorgeous art … sure love your details!
Thank you for stopping in. 🙂 Hope you are well!
