Bluejay of Happiness

oil on heavy panel

I wanted my first painting of 2015 to reflect how I hoped the year would be. Originally I thought of painting a bluebird, but I didn't feel the energy of a bluebird translated what I wanted to convey. I have always loved bluejays and their strong, proud, joyful energy. They are incredibly intelligent and very misunderstood. (on a side note: I have recorded about 12 different calls they make, all unique and expressive - the "squeaking gate" sound being my favorite) My mother told me once that when she was in labor with me, she listened to a bluejay outside the window making all of it's calls… maybe I heard them too.
So this year I hope to go in with strength and embrace joy in all things, choosing to recognize the joys and hold them in me.
Happy New Year to all of you - I have a good feeling about this one :)

Bluebird

Today is my 48th birthday and yesterday, after months of hard work, we proudly opened the Sun Gallery. We intentionally didn't advertise, so we knew it would be a quiet day to reflect on aspects of what we had done and what needs to be done... it was nice to sit still and reflect after all the rush.
It's a peaceful, creative space, in which I will probably be spending a lot of time... I absolutely love it.
Thank you Susan for the beautiful flowers!
Before...
