To achieve success is to become what God created you to be!
When I see fields of flowers, I want to look at all of them. They are not the same, they look alike, but there is something unique about each one of them. I have lots of geranium. I spend time admiring every bloom. Tiny little ones mesmerizing me! Each one shines its bright colors to make me smile. I take pictures of them. Comparing my pictures I realize that they are never the same. I could paint geraniums forever! Nature is an amazing infinite miracle happening every day. That's why I paint, to be part of the miracle and to register it translated in vibrant and happy colors! My brain can rest while I paint. It is my meditation time. Picasso said " first learn the rules so you can break them." I am so relaxed when I paint that I have to confess that I can only follow the rules of my heart! I just want the fun, the pleasure, the colors, the freedom and the joy! Art is what comes from inside. I just like to be myself.
I have been told that my paintings reflect who I am. I love that!
Like my geraniums, I am blooming, I have my own light to shine, and I am glad that it is unique.
