I love the sentiment, but would beg to differ – you are an ARTIST! It’s just semantics, but painter implies to me someone who just paints, you put your heart and soul into works of art = ARTIST. Ok – don’t forget it!!!!!
I hope my comment above don’t come off as rude or bossy. I know you were being positive, but I don’t want to see you underselling yourself, not even a tiny little bit.
Cue, twilight music... we were reading each others blogs at the same time. You are an artist & yes a painter too. Loving the progression of your works.
Good for you! It's a hard one isn't it. I always struggle with referring to myself as an artist...I prefer to say I'm an illustrator, it sounds less...I don't know, showey or something. I think you're an artist who paints :) Thanks for your nice comment on my creative space too!!

Beautiful...it doesn't matter what you call yourself, you are what is expressed in you work, that's all that matters;) xxt
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and inspirational :)
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful and true!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous dream to have! Wonderful thoughts to wake up to. You must be set for a very creative year :)
ReplyDeleteThat dream was clearly your subconscious saying "get with the program, Tinniegirl"! The rest of us, of course, already knew it to be true.
ReplyDeletePS. I love this new work!

Oh to be able to paint like that... You have a wonderful talent and should be very proud of yourself..
ReplyDeleteLike others have said, we knew it was true! Seems the universe had messages for both of us this week! Love the trees
ReplyDeleteThe best sort of dream is that which comes true.
ReplyDeletexoxo
i so envy people who can draw and paint. the best part of the dream has to be waking and knowing that it was true
ReplyDeleteYou are multitalented darling....next time answer with 'I'm an artist!'...
ReplyDeleteYAY to you for stepping into your power, Cathy!
ReplyDeleteyour recent work of art is beautiful - love all the trees =-)
I think we all need to tell ourselves that we are what we create from time to time and believe it.
ReplyDeleteThey look great:)
ReplyDeleteyou are an ARTIST Cathy you definately are. It is so weird how we hesitate to call ourselves one, these works are brilliant!!!
