I delivered my artwork to the KZNSA Art Gallery for the Annual Members Exhibition.
I feel quite disappointed that I did not do my original big idea – too much, too soon. It is my own fault I should’ve planned earlier and not decided only 2 weeks ago to enter. Although I am pleased that I did not give up and still entered.
Yesterday I completed a painting of a cake (wedding cake like) with the words “Life is a Celebration” but it just did not look or feel like me, was more childlike. At about 8:30 last night I painted over the whole painting, only had one canvas, and tried to come up with a new idea. After toying with the idea of painting a lady’s face blowing a kiss with big red lips I decided to paint a big red cherry on top of a cake. I just felt like painting a glossy cherry.
I don’t have much inspiration at the moment but this is the point of this site and the exhibition, to push me to start and discover my creative side again.
The curator said the composition is good and liked it, shew what a relief.
It’s called “The Cherry On Top” and the meaning is:
By doing what you love and are passionate about, you will realize the rewards are bigger and better than you could ever imagine.
