Why I Give Thanks for being an Artist

Breezin'
Gratitude looms large at this time of Thanksgiving...I have many reasons why I feel so fortunate to be an artist.
I love that making Art is about the exceptions instead of the rules.
I love that I can paint with any colours I desire, and any subject matter that appeals to me.
I love when you mix phthalo turquoise, titanium white and cadmium yellow light, you get
the colour of the Caribbean waters.
I love that I often don't know where I'm going, but somehow I know when I'm getting close to a great destination.
I have to admit, I love my life. My goal is that before my final breath, when I'm asked one last question about how my life was, I will be able to say, "It was spectacular."
I love that that there are people like you who understand and desire what I make.....so thank you for enjoying my art, and supporting my journey!
