Hi there!
I know, again, I haven't written anything here for years. I thought now would be a good time since I need your help for something. This summer I participated to a countest. I painted a flower pot downtown with a couple of other artists. We each had one. Now the votes are open and the way to do it is just to go on Facebook and "like" my flower pot (Elaine Martin, number 9). The one with the most likes is gonna win 500$. That would help me a lot with everything that's coming. I've been working hard on preparing my next exhibition. I'm actually gonna be showing and selling my art at the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition 2015 in 3 weeks.

Well hello there!
It's been over two or three years since I wrote something on deviantart. How insane is that? O_o
Today, I felt like I should give you some news about what's happening with me. I don't even post many things on DA anymore. And it's not because I am avoiding or forgetting about my account here. So yeah, I think you probably need to know why. Why have I been silent for all these years and why I'm not posting as many new things here as I used to.
First of all...
The last painting I've done was almost a year ago. It was "I will survive (again)".
I didn't give up on painting. Not at all.
The thing is... I pushed so hard, wo

Thank you!! (over a month later lol)
Stumbled across Red Light browsing new deviations today, so glad I did, you have an absolutely stunning gallery with some very powerful images that still have such a sense of fun/carefree with them. It's sad to see how your output has slowed so much and reading the journal from Nov 2013 just cements that. I hope you're still making music, and I hope you continue making things, whatever they be, for a long time to come; most people have talents too precious to waste, in few of us are they as obvious as they seem to be in you.
Hey thank you so much! This must be the sweetest thing a stranger ever wrote me. Thank you!
Really happy to see that my art can reach people. You know how we always doubt ourselves.
Yeah, I kinda stopped writing on the journal section and I haven't posted many things in the past 4 years. But I always saw this as a break. I feel like starting to paint again these days, so maybe "Red Light" is my come back.
Hopefully it is!
Anyhow, thanks a lot for taking time to write me this. We all need this.

You're very welcome, I'm glad my words had a positive effect
I know how tough it can be searching for a sense of value within
yourself and your work; believe me when I say that the value in
your work is self-evident, never doubt that.
If Red Light is the comeback we both seem to hope it is then I'm
excited to see where it takes you from here.
Best of luck.
