Blooming Artists

Something beautiful has been happening all around me...

When I created this "bloom" piece, I had no idea how many friends I would get to watch do that very thing. People are starting to try art, do art, call themselves artists, show their art, and love it!

'm getting texts and pics of their new creations, and this brings me so much joy! (unless it's in the middle of the night people!) ;)

They hang out with me and create... Above is my niece Lilly. We have cherished our art time together since she was 2. She used to ask me where her watercolors were everytime I saw her :)

And, of course, our grand daughter is taking to art naturally. Even holds her tools with those toes ;)

Kate's mom in law, Jean, has been joining in on all the fun.

My sis-in-love Jenny is now an artist as well. It brightens my day to see a pic with her new creation!

And yes, she is a bit crazy, but that adds to the artistic "flair" lol!

And Michelle who is like a sister, and partner in crime to me. (singing: we have only just begun...)

Who created these pieces even while tackling her Environmental Management Degree. So proud of her!

And last but not least, my amazing daughter Kate who has created more beautiful art than I could have ever imagined over the years. Some of my favorite memories are of the two of us painting together. Below are just a few of the amazing pieces by her... you can check out more of her art at www.katekearns.com

I love to see budding artists have the courage to step out and try something they have always wanted to do! And, I love meeting artists who encourage and challenge others to step into the art arena. Let's not keep it all to ourselves... release it, and share the wonder and joy of creating with others!


I'd like to showcase new artists here regularly. If you create something, send it to me and I'll show it to the small world of my blog readers :)

Happily creating,

Jess
