I feel very fortunate to have been asked to hang a show at Hospice. Such a beautiful facility. It's a life transitions center, focusing on counseling and support groups for people who have suffered losses. I never knew such a wonderful place existed. They wanted artwork that was not controversial in any way; artwork that was uplifting and without a heavy message. That suits me to a tee! There's enough stress, bad news, financial meltdowns, etc. blaring at us all day from the 24 hour news channels, newspapers, and media outlets galore. I don't want it adorning my walls, too! So I like to focus on positive images in my artwork. When it takes as long to paint as it takes me, I sure don't want to wallow in misery for a month.
I hope my artwork helps to uplift anyone in need. And I'm so grateful to have a show in such a wonderful place.
