Inspiration....




KandinskyGeorgia O'Keefe

2010 is going to be a really exciting year....I am really energized and optimistic! I am starting several new projects this year I am always on the lookout for ways to get inspired....After a very busy holiday season I realized that two must see exhibits were about to close.  You can always count on a great exhibit to spur on creativity.  I stole some time and headed over to the Whitney and saw the exhibit "Abstracts"a collection of   Georgia O'Keefe paintings, watercolors and line drawings. Her work always has inspired me even as a  young girl. 
Then I headed up to the Guggenheim and saw Kandinsky...Wow! what a thrill to see his work together in one space...unforgettable.  I love the artbuzz you get when you are close and personal with such amazing and inspiring art.  Of course, I bought the books and when home and poured over the pages again so I could remember my favorites....I posted a couple that I liked from the exhibit...I always take away a visual memory from these great artists and I weave a piece of it into my work....
