Finally!!

Well, finally....for me, anyway. I have been waiting to have this work shot to feed half a dozen commitments/application/proposals and can now *finally* move forward. I am a very sharing person and love to share with my fellow makers and students what I am doing and being in this holding pattern has been difficult for me.








My work is in transition...it seems appropriate that the new work is themed "Transformation" because I am at a stage of transformation professionally and personally. I have new pared down work incorporating unexpected materials and seeking a broadened audience, I am experiencing changes personally as my oldest is paving his way and I am feeling reflective, confident and strong as I am moving forward. I will not lie...I have suffered recent doubt and insecurity, but having come to the other side, stronger than ever in my art practice and direction. I have never shied away from a challenge and this is no exception. As my photographer sends images, I will share. In the meantime, I will share what I took while he shot!! The opening at the Museum is Saturday Feb 1st from 2-4 p.m. I hope to see you there.

    Good morning.

    Wish that I could be at your opening and see your beautiful new works in person.

    Thank you for sharing about your feelings of doubt/insecurity at times .... We all have them. To be able to state it, is just to say, 'I am human...I am real...I am honest.' All good things. Good to know that we're all in this big boat together.

    Wishing you much success, peace, joy and happiness in the coming year, Andrea.

    Big hugs,
    Dawn

    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. See the link below for more info.
