Recently, Opus Art hosted a challenge, “Your Creative Life,” where artists were invited to submit a work in progress with an explanation of their approach. It was so nice to receive a message today that my sunflower painting was one of the projects selected. This is a portion of it in progress:
Seeing my name in writing, tagged as a “Watercolour Artist” feels like a dream come true, considering my artist’s bio starts with “I was an art school reject at the age of 17, when I was told my work was too commercial in style.” I”m grateful, after a satisfying career in non-profit management, to have the opportunity to pursue my art.

Love this painting ! It would make great bedsheets, comforter, and wrapping paper. What kind of a summation is that your artwork was TOO commercial when applying to art school. You should have tried a different art school.
