I am a fiber artist working with textiles, paint and stitch to express myself in a creative way. One could say that my dream job would be working as a full time artist. Of course, life gets in the way and I would have to charge a whole lot more for my artwork if I wanted to pay the bills, health insurance, prescriptions. I plan to retire soon and then the dream can be fulfilled!
My grandfather wrote the following words about dreams:
“May we have dreams in abundance
Dreams old and new of sweet, vague half-forgotten
memories running backward like milestones along the
road of time.
Dreams of golden promises and supreme triumphs lying
just around the corner.
May the curtain never go down on the quaint
old-fashioned play of fancy until the lights fade out.
Dreams are the vanguard of human progress. They go
before and the world follows.”
John Randolph Stidman
Dream on, fellow artists and bloggers. Creating a blog is just my first step in getting my artwork out in the world, sharing techniques, exchanging ideas and connecting with others.
