I feel great things are coming!

So the owner/creator of the Red Sled went on a local tv show this morning. She did a segment on Upcycling and flea market finds. My poppies on metal were shown and also one of my canvases. A lady came into the shop today and bought the poppies and I've got three more orders in varying colors. I think I'm onto something! Whohoo its a great day!

My Art wrk be on AM Northwest this morning!

I got an email from the owner if the Red Sled Bazaar. She told me that she'll be taking some of my artwork with her. The segment is about upcycled art....perfect for me! It's got me thinking I should contact AM Northwest later and propose doing a how to segment on my box top canvases. I need to go for it! Here's to believing in yourself and being brave.....

Soon I'll be loading photos on another metal project I'm working on. I'm so excited with where it's going!!

I'm so excited!

I was brave and posted on facebook that I was looking for places to display and sell my art. I got a few great suggestions. One of my husbands classmates told me to look up the Red Sled Spring and Garden Show. I emailed the lady who puts it on Donna and went to the informational/jury meeting. I was absolutely floored by the compliments I got! When friends and family say your artwork is good it feels great but when someone you don't know gives you praise it's even better. I know their not just trying to be nice and supportive. Donna said, "sometimes I see someones art and think they should be famous". Holy smokes I think my mouth dropped open! Lets just say I have a renewed enthusiasm about getting more canvases done. The Spring Show is only a couple weeks away. One nice thing is that it's open for 4 weeks, I can continue to make canvases if they're selling I can restock. Back to painting I go! Here's a couple pics of what I've finished lately...
