I’m thrilled with contentment. I can’t wait to share more about it in the coming weeks. As I prepare to share my work with the universe, this journey of personal growth and progress fills my soul with joy. It’s a reminder that we’re all only human, but we’re also capable of incredible growth and achievement.
My journals are time stamps of my paintings from when children were to be seen and not heard. I stood still and silent then, but today, I paint stories of adventures in my mind, finding love and loss. Quite often, I stand from a distant glance and ask myself where I want to be and why I work so hard at my age to sacrifice this precious time in my life.
My goals are long and not necessarily easy to achieve, but they are doable with time, something we all need more of. Setting my plans up in five-year markers keeps me reasonably sane and makes them attainable. Time management is crucial in my journey, a skill I’ve learned to master.
I work in and out of paintings, hoping for sanity, but some days, it gets real and complex, a reminder that life only gives back what you put in. But does putting in all that hard work justify our sacrifices and dreams? Something I often think about before I sit down to paint.
As an artist, I find solitude in my quest for life and thirst for literature. My spiritual side has always been there as a guide. I know it well and listen wholeheartedly. The vast universe has many rewards for those who believe and invest in themselves. Even in days of uncertainty, there must be something more impressive on the other side of that world waiting to embrace me with open arms, with love and an abundance of kindness, a simpler life that we all crave but deny ourselves.
As I continue to paint my stories and share my thoughts, I feel blessed to be here in my world, painting what I love to do: SHARE
