Most of that was 5 years ago. since then I have:
had many exhibitions, solo, group, juried, international and local
developed signature styles
studied photography at RMIT and drawing and painting at Curtin University, all online
learned how to use 3D modeling to give me access to all the models and lights I could ever want
worked through many of my psychological issues on canvas
produced a large body of work
sold a large body of work
received awards and acclaim
fought legal battles, won some, lost some, still going on others.
became a pensioner, received my parking permit, got a cane to help me walk and used it to walk and walk and walk
saw many many many movies
formed groups for nude art online
formed a group for disabled artists
met my artistic hero
became an activist for nude rights and the fight against censorship
started a pretty successful blog
used my previous business experience to propel my career forwards while learning new tricks
discovered the joys and the addiction of social media
got a tattoo
learned how to budget, manage finances and save
got knocked up! it’s a difficult pregnancy but i’m still pushing ahead with my work and my strength building- some may say I’m insane but as long as I have my work to focus on I can get through anything. including pukeahontas.
been truly happy.
