Apropos of absolutely nothing but I need to crow a bit; one of my paintings -when I was still able to paint -has been accepted into a collage evxibitbwhich will appear in Times Square. I'm a bit dazed - while trying to act like it's totally cool, happens to me sell the tine ((OMG TIMES SQUARE!!!1one!)).
When I have a link of the exhibit I will put it up. Just had to crow a bit....(did Iz say that? Sorry I am still a bit gobsmacked)
You should be very proud, what an exciting time for you! Keep on shouting about it - don't be shy!
WoW!! That's amazing!! Congratulations, that's such an achievement, shout it from the rooftops!
If that were me, I'd be crowing too! Even aside from anything else, it's an amazing achievement. But it's also a way of reminding yourself and the world that you are not only defined by your condition. Here's to holding on to the essence of us.
Hi Silvergilt
What an amazing achievement, congratulations . You'll help inspire other Lupies so shout away!X
I think you not only entitled but you are under a great obligation to crow! Congratulations and where can we see a picture of your work to be displayed?
Oh yeah, links....duh. Still trying to brain
trskye.see.me That's the link yo the painting chosen. Biggest canvas I've ever done, which is currently shoved in a closet, like you do.
The link doesn't work!
Weird , ok try main one. ....and I need yo get a friend to clean the images too, I'm a crap photographer
I love these images but which one is being displayed?
"briar rose girl" -the biggest piece, and the one I like best, truthfully; girl enshrouded in roses with the bear skull beside her
It's very detailed. I like how it draws you in. I could ponder it all day! Congratulations!
I like it, interesting concept, why the bear? I like the others too, particularly the cherry girl.
*dons hipster artist beret* the bear hibernates for five months of the year! which is a form of sleeping death tying into the piece as a whole. *flings beret to the horizon* but mostly I had never tried painting bone before and I found a really cool reference image, so bear it was.
I suppose I should say something mindbogglingly convoluted but mostly my work comes down to It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time.
The skull reminded me of a piece of Renaissance art called 'The Ambassadors' by Holbein. It's also full of imagery. Could spend a long time studying it as well...
Good! I love images which cram details into them, every time, seeing something new. It's what I am for, never seeing the same image twice.

Very well done! You have every right to feel proud. Congratulations. 
Well done, you should be very proud and have every right to crow as much as you like.
