Surtex May 2011 New York...

Right now I am full of hope.  I don't want to read too much into the positive messages that I have recieved from this company, until they actually say the words..."Kelly, we would love to have you sign with us!"  So I'm waiting patiently to hear those words, trying to squelch my excitement and not jump up and down just yet...but oh it's hard!

The Surtex show was going on this past weekend.  It's a big show in New York, where licensing companys go and set up booths to represent thier artists.  Then the retailers from all over the world come in and "shop around" for artwork to go on thier products.


Painted Planet is the licensing company that represented me.  How cool is that!?  I had a banner up on thier booth wall, along with all these wonderful artists.  And they also had my portfolio on thier site to show prospective "buyers"....so exciting to me!

So now I sit and wait...with a big grin on my face...trying to be patient and ready for "the word".  If you have any extra prayers that you could spare, I would sure appreciate any that come my way.  I really want this to happen.  I feel so ready to explore another art outlet...

Hoping and praying...

Love, Kelly

Sedona...

Just got home a few days ago from a wonderful trip.  Sedona, AZ is such a beautiful place!  Wow!  It left me speechless as we were driving into these incredible red mountains.  Makes you look at the world with wonder, I loved the feeling....Here are some photos and a little painting I did while I was there...
the mountains are breathtaking!
Some beautiful souls to spend my time with...
a special night filled with laughter, tears, dancing, eating...so special....
of course I couldn't forget my supplies....
feeling blessed.

Lessons...

Sometimes life lessons are easy, and you dont know they are happening until they are over. Other times they can be so painful and drawn out that it feels like you could break in half. All you can do is stay true to who you are, to what your heart tells you.

Thats where I am today. Trying to keep it simple and true to my heart. What else can you do? I really dont know. I take responsibility for my words and actions and the consequences that will be. I examine my self, my faith, my values. I examine my words and their effects. I examine right from wrong and the role I have in this life.

I do know that life is constantly changing. I am constantly changing, and i hope growing. This is a good thing, just not always an easy thing.

Day by day, moment by moment, experience by experience...learning, growing, being.
