Art in the Garden 2014

This past Saturday, I displayed my art at Art in the Garden in Augusta, KY, my hometown!

It has been a long two years! In between has been my daughter Lindsay's wedding to Michael Blazer, the birth of Amelia Rose, the wedding of my son Mike to Adria Parsons both of which happened in Florida. I had no time to think of blogging. I shared my day with my friend Ruslyn Case-Compton who is a photographer. It was the first show for her and the first in Augusta for me (I showed in Lexington Theological Seminary with other artists when I was there!)

It was shocking to me to find I had so much to show. Most of mine was my Art & Healing work and Ruslyn's was from Hawaii, Italy, and Germany! Many people stopped by to look and talk about our work. One of the things I teach about Art & Healing is that it is important to display your healing work. I was privileged to do that this weekend with a great friend! She said that it was the cousin show, because every time she turned around I had another cousin coming to give me a hug and marvel at what I had done. Most had no idea I was an artist. 

Now I didn't sell much, about 7 pieces that day, but I can tell you how thrilled I was to show my work and to have so many people come by and point different pieces out. While you may not feel like showing the world your art, it is something you want to display for yourself as a gift from God!
This is the latest portrait I did of Michael Blazer at the wedding!
I gave this to my son Mike for his birthday this year, it is a compilation of pictures because Mariel is 5, Lyla is 4 and Amelia is 18 months! This was one of my transformation pictures!





These three are some of the images I found to frame and make into tshirts!





I also have some 4x5's of all of my work which you will be seeing as I write more blogs! I feel privileged to have gotten to do this! Thanks to my husband John! I hope to continue to show. I will be glad to sell my tshirts and prints! Contact me if you are interested! I will continue to share my healing work! If you have something, please send me a picture! Glad to be back! Blessings!
