This artist took a side road on her work's journey leaving her easel at the fork. What can I say? I could name a thousand reasons why I did, but that is not important to this writing. What is important and exciting to me is to have found my way back to that place, where part of myself had remained waiting. Paint pallet clean, brushes standing at attention, turp, spatulas and mixing jars.. all that wonderful paraphernalia that fill our work space, now ready for the call. Forward and onward!! No distractions, no more interruptions on this artist's journey. Happy 2010 everyone!! I hope it is a most remarkable year for all.

Wonderfully positive attitude! Don't look now, but I think that's what 2010 is all about.
Can't wait to see photos of your fabulous paintings. :()
I hope you'll post images of some of your paintings! We'd love to see them. I thoroughly enjoyed your description of how you felt when you painted - it felt so close to how I feel when I write. ;o)
Oh I soooo love art and painting! My fav is watercolor, for me to paddle around in, but I look forward to seeing more of your work in oils. Best luck with the blog!
Happy New Year to you, and congratulations on taking that first step down the creative path! :-)
When it comes to our work, where we've been will deeply affect the direction in which we're going. You go for it!

Christina, I love it that you're making a "come-back". I can imagine your excitement as only another artist can. I love your site and look foreward to seeing some of your work. Best of luck and happiness to you.
Like your blog Cristina! My favorite painting on the page is "Milkweed" - I love it! When I was growing up, my family raised Monarch butterflies from caterpillars and then let them go once they turned into butterflies...and it always started with finding an unassuming milkweed plant. Your painting reminds me of all the beauty that comes from that plant, all the potential it has, all the surprises it holds. That painting has such light and beauty to it, just like all living things do, just like life itself! =o)
Anne, I'm so happy you stopped by! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about this painting. Milkweed has been a favorite of mine as well. Happy to know it brought good memories for you. I loved watching the monarchs come to the milkweed plants that would grow here and there. in the most "accidental" places out in the country.
Thanks again!!
