You know how I feel about self-aggrandizers. Fb is full of them. I am a bit hesitant to share this good news but I shall.
A friend from out of town who has owned a gallery of fine artistan crafts and paintings visited this weekend. As they were completing a tour of my cottage home, I mentioned the watercolors on the wall were mine.
My friend queried me several times.
"Yours?"
She saw them, liked them and didn't realize I painted them. She wanted to see more. I presented several to her.
She looked at me and said the kindest words. I am too shy to share them and it really doesn't matter. I paint because I must. It just feels good. It doesn't matter what others think because I enjoy them. I won't share my work in a gallery, yet I have been asked on several occasions. It is just my way of looking at the world.
But really. What a compliment!
