This is one of the paintings that has been accepted to an art exhibition that is happening next month here.
The exhibition is called “Kindness Emerging” to coincide with Mental Health Week. Very close to my heart as I believe that art seriously has not only helped me but actually saved me since the untimely death of our daughter.
The theme was so show how you have kept positivity during COVID though your art.
All paintings had to have been completed during this time. This one, I actually painted because I couldn’t find a vase I liked to put some flowers in, for the painting I was thinking of. I picked Them near our Grandson’s school.
After I had painted it, I was really worried because I had just received the advertisement for the exhibition and I thought I had made a major stuff up!
There is more than one brewery in Fremantle, where the exhibition is and when I saw that one of the breweries was sponsoring, I thought I had got this all wrong!
I showed it to my son. He said “MUM! That is the brewery that IS sponsoring!” Then he said, as they do...”Now they will think you are sucking up!”
Anyway, I only found out yesterday that this along with three others have been accepted. I am so thrilled.
