IT IS FINISHED! What an amazing roller coaster ride this has been. I don't know if I would have been able to follow through if I hadn't first completed 5 year-long projects as I knew that there would be extremely challenging days and also that 'this, too, shall pass' - I think I'm feeling a little Biblical today 😊
*** Also, the support of each of these women and everyone else through conversations, emails, likes and comments has been incredible. I wish every artist had an opportunity to receive encouragement like this while in the throes of work. It really does make a diffèrence. *** Now...what's next? The body of work can be viewed at Inglewood Fine Arts with a Reception on May 5, 2-4pm and another on Ladies' Night in Inglewood on May 10, 5.30-8pm. The paintings are avaiable for purchase by contacting [email protected] (8×10 / acrylic on gallery canvas/ $195). *** On May 11 a selection of the paintings will be on display at the Amazing Airdrie Women awards luncheon hosted by AirdrieLife magazine at Woodside Golf Club in Airdrie. *** I have been working on a small book to commemorate this project...I hope to share more information later this week. *** The entire project can be viewed on my website under '100 Days - Nasty Women.' *** I think I've been called to paint women...I don't think I'm quite finished with this yet. So I will keep painting portraits but not every single day as that was both physically & emotionally exhausting..though extremely rewarding. *** I still have a long list of women who put their names forward so I will continue but I would also love to hear from anyone else who would like to be added to it. *** I was so sad to be completing this project and now I feel all tingly because I'm excited that this is not the end, but rather a new beginning. THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH! ❤ Comments are closed.
