So this year my theme is "be brave". Don't get me wrong. I am not going to try bungee jumping or swim with sharks. I am referring more to bravery as a creative person. In some ways learning to paint has been an exercise in bravery. I didn't think I would ever try painting. It seemed daunting and difficult. I was willing to give it a try by telling myself that it would just use what I learned about color and apply it to my work with fiber. Who knew? Well I kinda, sorta, love it! It is so friggin fun! And on top of that, I actually like most of my finished paintings. I have posted pictures on the paint and paper page.
Here is the latest:
I am going to do something really brave (for me). I am going to get a booth at MUC 'n' Stuff Spring Fair. The MUC is the Makawao Union Church. I am going to try to sell some paintings and maybe some dolls too. I am pretty excited. I have 2 and 1/2 months to make stuff. Whopee! Being brave is exciting!
