Thank you all, for your compliments!
It means much to me to receive the feedback. I wonder, does an artist ever stop worrying over the work she does? Will I always think, UGH, before "not bad" (it takes me some days to sit and view a finished piece before I am happy with it). So, it helps to get your feedback.
My year away and subsequent move back to my studio and life in Cleveland were the best moves I could have made for my artist self. I truly feel that living in Atlanta for a year enabled me to find my own definition of self . . . that is, that I am an artist first and whatever I do to supplement my income second.
I love the way I have quilted together a life, a way of earning $$$ that enables me to draw and paint. Maybe I can keep this up, I hope so!
Happy Labor Day!
