The thing about blogging is that it requires writing, not my first love and so can easily be pushed to the side. I took quite a blogging holiday, however I am back! The end of my summer on Hida Guii was so lovely, although extremely wet...My creek did refill with water, bathing did resume, and yes I am still dealing with my ear infection. I had my art show at Queen B's with an all out art opening...pizza, jelly beans, coffee and live folk music...it was grand!!! I sold some big pieces and received some wonderful and supportive feedback. Five days later I flew off the island and back to Nelson........and found myself waitressing, drinking coffee, gossiping about the same old things and decided I had come to far to retreat to the familiar. In true fly by the seat of my pants style I gave my notice at my job (one and a half weeks in) Found a little studio in the valley (30 min from Nelson) and this Friday (Oct. !st) resume the life of a starving artist in the wilderness. In this moment my art appears to be resonating with people....I am taking this moment and I am flying to the moon with it!!!!! Six months from now I may be begging for a dishwashing job in order to pay my rent however for the moment I am o.k. and happy and excited and brimming with creative energy!!!!!! Many people (including myself) spend too much time wishing instead of doing......turns out doing is far more fun!!!!
To my dear blogging readers we are about to reenter camp wilderness Kootany style.....should be fun!!!
