Monday 1 March 2021, the day is here, website is finished and we are ready to go live. Today marks the next chapter in my life... it's scary, exciting, raw. The use of social media and exposing yourself to the world is something I want to try. Eight years ago I started painting as a form of Art Therapy to counter a period of extreme stress caused by a situation at work. In December 2020, I was lucky enough to retire early.... so today I'm taking a leap into an unknown space to show some of my work and see if there is a market for it. As the the German philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche said:
“That which does not kill us, makes us stronger.” I hope he was right.
I would like to thank Evie Foster (@eviefostercreative) for helping me with this website. Toni Angenent for seeing something special in my work and commissioning a set of five beach scene paintings for her new home. To my family for always praising my art work and firstly displaying it proudly on the fridge and later on on most of the walls of your house. And finally to my husband who supports me mind body and soul, you keep me grounded and sane and push me out of my comfort zone daily. I love you all.
