BLOOM

Image
Happy Spring to each of you! This is one of my Flower Fairy Painting series titled "bloom" and I hope it encourages you to bloom wherever you are in your life right now. I filled this 10" x 10" canvas with layers of multicolored fanciful flowers and placed a sweet little flower fairy in the center. If you look closely you will see the word "bloom" among the flowers. May it bring you joy today. Blessings, Ann

Thankful

Sunrise over Studio November is the month of thanksgiving and I have much to be thankful for. Blessings beyond measure and I cannot begin to count them all. My dream of a studio is now a reality and I constantly marvel at that. Years of sketches in my journals will show how long I have waited for her. Is she everything I wanted? Not exactly, but I think she is perfect. This studio represents so much more than a place to store supplies. She is a physical reminder to me that I can make dreams come true and live my life as an artist; a lovely new beginning in a fragile lifetime that sometimes seems full of endings and sorrow and change. I don't have it all figured out but I am learning to believe in myself. For such a tiny space, she holds a world of opportunity within. More than that, I hope to somehow inspire all of you to hang onto your hopes and make today a joyful one for yourself. You really can.

Sharing some artwork today!

As I assemble a portfolio of artwork I have created, I will try to share as I go along. These are photos of a wedding invitation I designed in my studio.

Look what God planted just outside my studio for me! Two gorgeous sunflowers in the perfect spots. I WANTED to plant sunflowers around but didn't manage to. He took care of it for me. He is always doing sweet little ( and BIG ) things like that for me. What a loving Father He is. How could I NOT believe? #Godisgood #allthetime

My first painting of the first bouquet in my lovely Sunshine Studio.  Far from complete, but I can honestly create in here...at last.  Blessed.
