"The main focus of my work has become storytelling...
honouring the lives + stories of women
through portraiture."

The Month of March

The thing that is really hard, and really amazing,
is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.

~Anna Quindlen, Author

March is a busy month for me and for that I am both nervous and excited.  The greatest challenge is to keep the quote above in mind as I prepare for each.

** The Art Gala was last night and it was FANTASTIC!  Almost 100 people came to support the students.

** Next weekend at the library is the altered book project at the Jr Artist's Workshop.

** The week after I have to deliver a presentation at City Council.

** The following week I will be presenting a documentary at Council Chambers.

** A meeting to attend to plan for the first Mayor's Night of the Arts.

** I have three magazine articles to complete (honoured!).

** I am preparing new work for two exhibits in the next few months (also very honoured!).

My month has only just begun and I've already had to miss a meeting I was so hoping to attend.  But I know all will be well.  I feel very fortunate to live in a community with a growing and vibrant arts community and to do everything I get to do.  And, thankfully, amongst all that is happening in my life, there is always the meditation of painting in my studio.
