Exciting news are such for an artist when she receives the confirmation that two of her paintings have been selected for a big group exhibition out of 700 entries. 🙂 The joy I was feeling to attend the NZAFA Winter Exhibition 2017 in Wellington was comparable to a child that finally sees the Christmas tree and the presents below. I hope that feeling never goes away with time.

The photo was taken for personal memory purposes with something along the lines like: “Hey love, can you please take a quick photo of me in front of my paintings? But make sure no one is around to see it.” 😀  You can see it was very cold that year in New Zealand. Even inside I am still in my warm fluffy jacket.
