An Amazing Evening
Thank you so much to my friend Leslie Bridger ) who organized a fundraising gala on this, the last night of my show “Treedom”. Approximately 20 of her family and friends came to share in my art, in delicious culinary delights she prepared, in 2 30-minute presentations by both her and I, and in heavenly harp music by my friend Gayle Tapper. It would have been a success either way as everyone seemed to enjoy the connections and sharing, but I’m thrilled to announce that 7 paintings went home with folks, including this one, Treedom 7(36″ x 60″)- sales tonight will cover the rest of my tuition for my trimester at the The Vienna Academy of Visionary Art! THANK YOU SO MUCH! What’s left to cover is housing and living expenses in Austria (~ $8K). My summer ESL teaching contracts at Memorial University are covering my expenses here before I go and what I’ve already raised on www.RocketHub.com/projects22252 is covering my flight and fundraising production costs. I love it when a plan – and a divine calling come together!
I’m so filled with gratefulness and happiness that it will take me a while yet to fall asleep… but that’s OK!
well done! I really like this Treedom had not seen it before. Hope to see more of this style. A new friend here is an artist and altho his personal art is not quite my style, he has written a very interesting thesis on prairie painting, sacred geometry in art etc , including the influence of some very famous names such as Dorothy Knowles and Otto Rogers and other local very accomplished artists if you’re interested, you can see it at .
I really learned a lot, altho rather than the concept of geopiety, I would rather name it geonumina or terra numina. Love Sherrill
Thanks Sherrill!
