How did I spend my birthday...

We went out for a pre-birthday dinner last night. And for today, my wonderful husband had a bunch of surprise activities planned or us (he still doesn’t tell me what it was).

Unfortunately, our morning didn’t start as well as we expected. He had an excruciating abdominal pain that came out of nowhere and we ended up in the ER. Luckily, it was nothing critical or requiring hospitalization. He feels much better after receiving proper medication.

I don’t normally share things like this because they have little to do with my art journey. But the moments like this make me grateful for what we have - our health, our loved ones, and even just good spirit - things that we usually take for granted.

My birthday gift this year is that my husband is fine, in good health and in good spirit.

Feels like birthday when you get such a special gift from a dear friend! No pictures can do justice to the depth and vibrancy of this work! Swipe to see the closet shot of the painting.
Thank @strangeartkc101! I love you girl ❤️

#unfinishedproject
I want to talk a little bit about the unfinished work... Do you have any that sits on the shelf for a long time? I sure do.

The paintings in the carousel are from different series, in different stages of completion and at different levels of abandonment. TheAging Marilyn Monroe, for example was put aside in January 2020 although she was really close to a finish line.

I often joke that my biggest series is 3 1/2 pieces. And it’s actually true. I was wondering for a long time why it’s happening. Why do I get bored with one idea so quickly and jump onto another? Why can’t I work in one style fit any significant period of time?

At some point I thought I should just accept this about myself. And as I began accepting it, I started thinking that it might be a part of the development process. And this is why.

There’s no way of knowing, even for me, that I will never finish those pieces or never get back to those series. So I should probably call the paintings “works in progress” and series “open” instead of “abandoned”.

I’m posting it today because for some reason I felt compelled to pull them out and make attempt on working on them. Wish me luck!
