"Chance is always powerful.  Let your hook be always cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish." - Ovid

Positive thinking, reaching beyond what you are capable of, stepping back when you need to, follow your heart....it's all good!
Living a creative life is like swimming in a big pool, some days you can get far, sometimes you barely seem to stay afloat, sometimes you really enjoy the 'feel' of it, sometimes the waves are powerful, yet somehow you swim and don't sink.  I'm lucky, very lucky, and I continue to paddle through this artistic little world that I have created around me...and I continue to share it with the world.

Seems most days I am in the studio 'working on some new pieces' that 'will be shipped off to one of the many wonderful galleries that represent me' YET, I never seem to tire of this 'process' this 'path' that I am on.  Sure, there are a few little changes I would like to make, but for the most part the 'path' is an interesting one and as in your life, the 'winding' of the path seems to make you appreciate the journey even more.

My current body of work seems to be getting a little more colorful, yet still filled with subtle mark-makings and lots of texture.  My gallery "Darnell Fine Art" in Santa Fe, NM, has titled my work COLOR FIELD ABSTRACTED LANDSCAPES...and I really like that!   I think it easily sums up what I am trying to accomplish with my work!

So, as I continue on my creative path...forever enjoying the process...I hope that you are enjoying your 'path' as well!
