Happiness is....

Picture




Happiness is having people around town who appreciate my art and support me in various ways. One way is to share with me the  sea glass and/or seashells that they collect on their beach walks. A lot of people like to pick it up because it's fun to find but they don't really have a use for it. That's where I come in. Between my sea glass trees, bowls and cards and now my seashell bowls I'm always happy to accept contributions to my creativity.

Today I was blessed - we'll see how blessed I'm feeling as I'm sorting all this - to receive an abundance of shells that had been collected by a gentleman, Joe, who is no longer with us. His friend told me that Joe used to create castles and such with the shells and he felt that Joe would love that I receive his shells to continue to create beautiful things with them.

    Who knew there was an artist lurking within? Certainly not me.

    It started with my Mom giving me some paints that she wasn’t using but I never did anything with them because “I wasn’t artistic” - according to myself. We really need to learn to have a kinder inner voice because I have discovered that apparently I am artistic.
     
    In early 2018 I was introduced to an artist on Instagram ​from Australia who makes the most beautiful art. I looked at it and was truly inspired. I thought how hard can it be to put dots on some rocks. I had never felt that I was artistic at all but this woman has changed me forever! So I began and since that time I have started following even more rock artists to inspire me.

    In late 2019 my sister in law introduced me to another Instagram person who creates coloring books. Drawing is another thing I said I could never do but thanks to the inspiration I am receiving from this woman and through various social media sources I have discovered that I actually can draw.
     
    So the lesson is....you never really know what you are capable of until you actually try it! Never say never, I can’t etc. to yourself. Obviously I have to change my words and thoughts from - "I'm not artistic" and "I can't draw" to.....
    ​"Cool something new! Let's give it a try and see where it goes!" And now when people ask me what I do I say - I am an Artist!
     
    I look forward to expanding my creativity. Thank you for your interest and support.
