I am so proud and fired up this morning! I just found out I was lucky enough to have one of my paintings accepted for the Hoosier Salon’s annual juried show. For me, this is a really big deal since it gives me the right to be a gallery artist with work routinely hanging in their galleries. It also confirms for me that the success I had last year was not a fluke. Too often it seems that we create our most powerful work during periods of extreme emotion and then can not reproduce that intensity. I hope I have truly found a way to communicate many different thoughts and emotions. The painting that was accepted is Stages 3. It is on Arches watercolor board – a half sheet torn the long way.
Stages 3
Thank you to all my blogging friends for your continual support and encouragement.
Congratulations!
Thanks Chris. You have been one of my inspirations.
Congradulations!!
Thank you Linda!
Congratulations, Linda! You have worked hard and deserve every bit of your success!
Thanks Harriett! This was one of those paintings that I was uncertain about while I was painting it but when I propped it up for the “living with it” period I knew it was good.
Congratulations, Linda! This was not luck, but the result of your hard work and perseverance!
Thank you Ruth! And for me a big part is the perseverence. Sometimes its hard to stick with a painting that seems to be going badly…this was one of those!
Congrats and All the Best!
Congratulations, Linda.
Many thanks!
Wow, congratulations Linda. That’s wonderful.
Thanks Carol! I’m still bubbling with excitement.
Congrats! This is indeed gorgeous! I like how much movement is it. You can look at it different times and be drawn in different ways.
