After a very interesting conversation with the one and only Active Rain Ambassador Margaret Rome, Baltimore Maryland this morning we discovered that we were both artists. During the conversation I was asked if I ever blogged about my artwork here on Active Rain...short answer...NO. At least not until today. So this post is for and because of Margaret.....Thank you.

 

 

This piece was created at my studio in San Miguel de Allende Mexico, where I have maintained a home since 2005. I get great inspiration from that town. This acrylic on canvas was inspired by the tile floor in my studio that has paint spilled all over it from years of "throwing" paint around. Photo below is my studio in Mexico.

I had no idea!  I am glad you were inspired to post some of the artwork.  The piece you posted is great.  I had no idea it wasn't tile (I had to read the description twice to make sure).

Marco, that's great, AR is like family and we love to showcase the talents of our friends. I've been showing my talents and it's gotten me known as the "Whale Tale" girl. Come to think of it, I need to draw another one soon.

Hi Marco - It's nice to see another side. I like the painting and envy the studio. I was in San Miguel de Allende years ago - it's such a lovely town, with great architecture.

Isn't Margaret one special lady, Marco? I have learned so much from her! I am glad you decided to follow her lead. I believe that people want to know more about you than "just" that you sell Real Estate and how fast and good you do that (which is important, too, of course). They are looking for a connection. If you don't share who you are and what you are all about, then that connection can't be made. And they may not call you.

P.S. That studio of yours! Amazing!!
