I started a project
to communicate to my daughter
I was once an artist
It looks to me you are an artist! Don’t all artists have unfinished projects? :)
if I’d ever present
I think I’d call the exhibit
“unfinished projects”
wow, I like the top one, did you do it??? I could stare at that for hours… :)
thank you
~
yes, I did
I would say that you still are an artist… being an artist — whether it’s a painter, a writer, a poet, a musician — it is who you *are*. It is just the same as the color of your eyes, or your hair … they are a part of who you are, part of your DNA. So is being an artist.
My guess is that you were once an artist, and, then during a time of intense grief, loss and change, your art seemed unimportant… and, if I’m not mistaken, this blog is helping you to rediscover your art ….
It’s not an unfinished project — just a project that was waiting for you to experience some healing, and to rediscover some happiness, which your daughter so clearly gives you.
Perhaps, it might even be that your daughter, with her wise eyes, and childish laugh has given you reason to again find the art in your soul.

thank you for all of these, my artist friend.xo

journey
I loved Florence and you captured it in that small segment. All I know is that once you’re an artist you’re always an artist. It’s in you.

we are all

Certainly has crossed my mind. :)
