Why you may ask? I went along to the opening of a new art gallery in Oswestry today and it has sparked something within me that I never knew existed. I saw the most amazing art work in the most awesome environment and all I could think of was how I want to be a part of it.
Please allow me to backtrack a little. I went to see a medium only a few weeks ago. I know some of you may be sceptical out there but she knew things only a person speaking to those who have past would know. I won't dwell on those details because they are quite private but what she did say was how I've wondered for many years whether I was on the right path, whether what I was doing was the right thing .... well now, she said, I'm most definitely on the right path. I knew she meant the journey I'd begun in the art world. She also said that October was going to be a very important month for me, opportunity after opportunity. All so very positive.
I went along to the new art gallery, The Willow, in Oswestry with my friends John and Kirsty today. As soon as I walked in and saw the quality of artwork before me, I knew instantly that I wanted to be part of it. Although I have amazing support on Facebook and Twitter, I sell paintings all the time, I really have this yearning to be recognised amongst my peers also.
Don't get me wrong, I have doubts that I would be good enough, but the fire and ambition I feel now is just quite overwhelming. I really really want to be able to display my work amongst those that I admire.
Well, who knows what will happen next. I'm still so loving the path that I am on now, I wouldn't change it for the world and I thank everyone who has helped me to take those first few steps and who continue to support my work. I will always be grateful.
Love and hugs
Jude
