IT'S BEEN A WHILE...


Photo posted by: covered in freckles

It's been a while since I last wrote.
Life is delightfully busy. And rewarding.

I am brainstorming a number of things.
Gathering my thoughts and inspirations to produce a collection.

I've been given a wonderful opportunity.
More than wonderful, actually.
Amazing, just what I needed, ground breaking opportunity!

I finally feel as though I am
BUSTING through doors which have been closed for so long.

Come October, in the CR Currin Showroom,
at the High Point Furniture Market
...
I will be showing and selling my artwork!

So, over the next few months,
I will be painting my little heart out!
Creating, expressing and as it always works out... discovering and resolving.

Stay tuned! I will be posting as I go.
*look for these inspirations in my work to come*
