What will the day bring today?

I had a great day yesterday I turned everything off and just had a me day. I worked on making a catalogue for the open studios. It's looking great and I'm getting really excited about opening up my studio for the event!

I was hoping to do some painting yesterday but only managed to paint another thing on my freedom of speech painting.

The dude that Shaughan was buying my car off rang yesterday and said that he had taken it in to a mechanic and the car was in need of some major money spent on it so he decided to let it go and look for another one. I'm happy cause I really wanted a red one so it goes faster hahaha.

I start my permiculture course today and I have been invited to go to the tutors birthday party tonight so I'll see where the flow takes me. It sounds like fun sitting around the fire in her garden.

I had a nice surprise when I opened the Sargeant Gallery's newsletter yesterday on the first page was a photo of some of their patrons standing in front of my painting of my family that I painted.

I also got send a magazine and a flyer that popped out was a Wanganui flyer that I thought was a bit uncanny. It was full of events here in Wanganui and there wasn't a mention of the Open Studio event that has been going for about 6 or 7 years, but there was something about the festival of glass that has only run twice. Nice to see the council supporting the whole of their local artists, NOT! It really is a big part of Wanganui the artists living here and you would think that the council would try to help all artists but they have chosen just to support the glass artists. It sucks! Not sure where their heads are, lets hope for all artists that this changes in the near future. One thing that the council haven't even thought of is of the musicians in town. I have come across loads of Wanganui musicians and I hope that in the future I can help to promote them in some way. I think music is one of the most powerful art forms.

My message for the day was: You are loved, guided, and protected by us, the angels, now and always.
