Well, this is it. My first ever public showing of my paintings, if you don't count posting the occasional picture on Facebook. It's both terrifying and exhilarating. I have no illusions about the quality of my work, or dreams of selling anything at the show. I'm simply participating so people will see my work, and think "Hmm, I could do that..." I want patrons to feel the little spark I'm passing on, the creative frisson of moving from "I could" to "I do!" My art is primarily images of women thinking. I know, how do you express the act of thinking in a picture? I'm still trying to figure that out. That's the reason there's a series. I'm still exploring the concept.
I'm also womanning a DIY table for grown where you can try out acrylic or watercolour painting, learn to knit, or make your own beaded jewelry. That's really the part I'm looking forward to, getting in there and creating with strangers. Should be a blast!
