I remembered I wanted to go to Swiss became shepherdess. Then oneday when I was walking I saw the sun lightened up the hill through the woods. Then I realize I am living in where I dream. I am not a shepherdess but I can go to the berry picking with cheese and ham sandwiches on the rolling hill of Oregon.
We have the ArtWalk in the community where my studio is. There are live art, on the spot drawing by pedestrians, poll table in the tent, unusual bicycles and rikshas running on the street. I remembered I wanted to go to Montmartre Paris, live with artists like the way the impressionists lived.
Then I realize I am living in artists’colony in Portland Oregon just like Monmartre Paris.
Hey! Life is good.
When I was insecure about myself I copy another artist’s style.
But Now I look and find what I was searching within reach.
For a long time I was bitter and believed not getting recognition.
But I realize I am getting recognized through RedBubble, Community ArtWalks and exhibits in Tokyo.
I may not have world class resume but I have many
viewers let my arts to touch their heart. If that is not the priceless recognition I don’t know what is.
