Wherever you are right now as an artist, I am here to remind you that you can do this.
It may not always be easy and it may not always be smooth but if you keep at it you will experience joys and rewards you could not have dreamed of from where you stand right now.
It may not always look exactly like you dreamed it would, but the life you aspire to is waiting for you.
I just wanted to make sure you remembered this.
Your work means something. There is a place for your work in this world. No matter what kind of work you make, there are people out there just WAITING for you work.
Really.
There hearts are longing for what you and ONLY you can give. Just as there is no one in the entire world who looks quite like you, there is no one in the whole entire world who can create what you do.
Your work is important.
Please remember that.
Now, go get in the studio!
I remember watching you last year at a Napa show. I started painting at age 65 and to date have sold about 75 paintings ranging in price from $25 to $850.- I am still learning. are you coming to Napa again?
Hey Hank,
Thanks for writing and congrats on your success with painting sales. No plans to be back in Napa right yet, but be sure to check the mindfulartist newsletter “Where’s Michele?” section for my schedule.
