hearts desire

hi everyone, with valentine's day right around the corner
i decided to paint a series of heart paintings
*******


knowing only the very young have hearts that are perfect
i decide to paint hearts with marks on them
to show the scars we all have felt at times
but that our hearts are still beautiful & full of love....
they are available here

i've had a little break through....i decided not to worry so much about
what my style is & what i should be focusing on
illustrations? painting? mixed media?...
it can be very debilitating
i tend to to think about it sooo much i end up not doing anything
i decided to just go with what feels right at the moment
i think the only way to find your style
is to create & create & create & your style will show
how did you find your style?
how did you know this is it!!
or are you like me & always second guessing yourself?
maybe all artist feel this way at some point
but for now i plan on creating what ever my muse is for the moment
 &
not worry so much what everyone else thinks
easier said then done i know
*******
sneak peak at what is on my easel now
 it's not finished yet 
so far i like it
*******
i want to thank everyone for commenting here it means a lot to me
don't forget to leave a comment on my this post for a chance to win a ACEO card

have a wonderful weekend!!

I did worry about having a style, too....but the more I make, the more others say they "recognize" my stuff. Really? I don't see it, but I feel the joy of making it....and it that translates to others, too...then that is all I need :)

I have always been drawn to your work since I first laid eyes on it...have no worries...just keep making more!
