Paint Party Friday

In our little family, we all choose a special word each January (rather than a resolution), to denote how we feel or what we want or where we are going.... My buzzword for this year is 'soar'.

The pressure begins. I have to get all my art and price lists and personal info to the gallery curator by the end of January, so he can start with the press releases for the Exhibition on 1-3 March. Pressure to paint is never easy! Breathe Joss, and get to work! www.newartistfair.com

As I am creating 6/8 completely new pieces for my exhibition, here is one I did in 2012, which is in my etsy shop. www.etsy.com/shop/soulbrushart.
 Here's to a fabulous 2013 for us all.

You are a master of color and your style is so unique! I hope you will be so encouraged by the responses to your work at this exhibition. Was it not for the (rather large) pond between us, I would have been there!
