So much was going on in the triangle today! I stopped by the historic park and painted some walnut trees in a grove, it's a peaceful place by the way. In that peace a whirlwind of children came by spotted me getting ready, thinking they were going to watch me paint I continued on. Instead, I noticed that these children had a spark of joy for painting, one even saw a future in it. This stopped me in whatever endeavors I had in mind so we ended up finger painting for a while and it overwhelmed me a bit but not in a bad way. Gotta thank god for that interaction because I haven't been a spirit that excited for art like that. That's all I've got to say about that.
After a meetup, I headed to Wake forest to find a great place to paint called Green Hills county park. So if any other artist are out looking for a challenging spot to paint then this might be it. The wind here was a game changer so be prepared for that! I was not but I got the info I needed to finish in the studio.
I up and got accepted to be an artist vendor for the Arts on the Block market this year on Saturday April 18 from 12-5pm. For those that don't know, arts on the block in a block party for all ages celebrating the power of community and visual art hosted by @artspacenc . Funds raised during Arts on the Block will support Artspace’s mission to provide accessible art exhibitions, affordable studio spaces, career-building artist residencies, low and no-cost art education programs, and community events. Really excited to showcase and make art available to a great community. Hope to see you there!

Hope everyone is doing well and staying warm! Where have I been? Short answer, working hard on putting a lot of work together for the year. Trust me when I say it has not been easy but I guess it wouldn't be worth it if it wasn't huh. Anyway, I couldn't resist creating a landscape painting in this NC snow(it's gone now lol).
There will be a great show next Friday. I'll be in attendance and I hope you're able to come out for a great time! #ncartist #fridayfunday☀️#durhamarts
