Sapling

Piece I painted of my baby girl and I for an at show. Didnt get accepted this time around but thats the thing about putting your self out there. Somtimes you make it sometimes you dont. I was really nervous to see the outcome of this show and then I remembered back to a juried show that I was in seven or eight years ago and how the two people in the jury told me to never paint people again. Im glad I have my fathers stubborn Ukrainian blood in me cause no one is going to tell me what I can and cant do especially when it comes to artwork. I am so grateful for how my artwork has progressed and am happy for the way it was seven years ago also.
