We are setting up a section on our websites for Artist and posting some of their Citra-Art. If you would like to have some of yours displayed let me know.

...Mary, don't give up. Your art is beautiful. <br /><br />I too agree with Jazz's post. I think about giving up every day...but I won't. <br /><br />I know I will have to get a "real job" soon, so I understand.Sandra L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12996512145634439543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117121614623197321.post-27403525336126938872009-08-19T14:37:27.391-05:002009-08-19T14:37:27.391-05:00Just read the post from Jazz.

I know they always help me pick myself up...<br /><br />You might have to get a "real" job (although the "reality" of that particular waste of precious time is debatable), but you will always be a great artist - and that is so much more than most of us corporate drones have. You have a wonderful gift and though it might not earn you a living right now, never ever ever stop painting. Your art is beautiful.Jazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14644896022880634803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117121614623197321.post-34117189107339149412009-08-17T22:19:20.756-05:002009-08-17T22:19:20.756-05:00Great post!

Aren't we lucky to be able to have people to talk to about the way we feel and what is going on in our lives? Our blogs really help too. Keep up the positive attitude. Remember: ultimately we should be making art for ourselves because we HAVE to or NEED to. All the rest is just icing on the cake for that party!Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13046623774704584939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117121614623197321.post-77363013089448746412009-08-17T16:02:47.813-05:002009-08-17T16:02:47.813-05:00Don't despair--- course that is easy for me t...Don't despair--- course that is easy for me to say with paintings stacking up in my studio as well--- I keep telling myself it is the economy right now--- sorry I think you have it in your blood to create and we all have our ups and downs and goods and bads--- then I go back into my studio and get to work, and so will you.layershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10991288165260934778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3117121614623197321.post-1265971649709492162009-08-17T15:44:56.788-05:002009-08-17T15:44:56.788-05:00Bless your heart Mary.

I was sad I missed you all yesterday, my mom said she had fun seeing you all and that betsy held court at Pizza Hut. I'm sure that was a site to see and I wish I could have been there!Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741790552185786254noreply@blogger.com
