I am an Artist

“I am an artist – this means I live in a fantasy world with unrealistic expectations – thank you for understanding”. Author unknown.

It might as well have been me who came up with that wee insight. 

I expect I will have more time next week to paint.

I expect people will leave me alone when I’m in my creative zone.

I expect beautiful creations will appear every time I put brush to canvas.

I expect people will squabble over who can pay the most for my latest creation. Only joking!

I do think that I am predominantly am optimist. Some people say that I see the world through rose-coloured glasses. All the better to paint pretty pictures, I say in response to them.

I usually paint flowers because I am overcome with how beautiful they are, and I want others to see them as I see them. My fantasy world is full of rose-coloured flowers, and I like it that way.
