I celebrated my 10th Blogiversary last month...it passed me by without my realizing it. Some of you have been reading me since the very start --
Thank You!
I find myself winding down now, retreating again into virtual obscurity. I'm hardly online these days for all intents and purposes. There are a few artists I'm following on Instagram, but I'm hardly posting there.
I've come to that place in life where I just want to live it, I don't want to talk about it. There really isn't anything to say, and I hate to talk just to talk.
I'm happier than I've ever been before. My life, just the way it is, is enough for me. I have what I need to live exactly the way I want to. I no longer need anyone else's approval, acceptance, accolades, applause or acknowledgement. I'm totally free to be me. I have no complaints, and a lot of gratitude.
I'm working at painting and drawing and collage. Abstract, non-objective painting and drawing. I'm going at my own pace, doing a little bit most days. Some days I don't have the energy so I just rest and read. I have no agenda, no deadlines, no have-tos, no obligations, no expectations of myself.
Life is peaceful, and full of grace.
Knowing me, it's possible I'll be back here, but I don't know when. I'm all about changing things up this year...and stepping away from any form of marketing of myself or my art is at the top of the list.
With age, I'm becoming more old-school, especially in this topsy-turvy world of ours where the truth has become a political lightning rod. I can only live by my own truth now.
Peace and blessings to you all. xx
