Love of Art Blog Party

Today is the Love of Art Blog Party in which everyone is invited to join in.

I love art because it brings me great joy through it's challenges and triumphs, and when I'm creating this is all I think about - not my kids or husband or problems just my art.

'The Pattern of Love' was created with acrylic paint and and an old pattern.

The Pattern of Love, mixed media, 20cm x 20cm, 8" x 8"


“Love is sustained by action, a pattern of devotion in the things we do for each other every day.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Wedding


Merovingian from the Matrix Revolutions: "It is remarkable how similar the pattern of love is to the pattern of insanity. "

LoveSong by Adele - could not find a decent version of this on youtube...


I had my son take some photos of me for an artist portait photo - wearing my heart pendant...



Hearts have featured in my art since I began creating a few years ago...
