I really love to share my work with people, especially people that I know.  It&#8217;s a great feeling to know that something so personal to you is enjoyed by others.  I remember when I first started to show my work (out of school), I was so self-conscious and afraid because it was work that I not only created on my own, with no guidance or &#8220;approval&#8221; by a professor, but also because I felt so exposed.  My first show was a juried exhibit (talk about fear!).  Most people there ignored me and visibly did not seem to like my painting, but I received 2nd place (obviously one person liked it) and I was so relieved and surprised, but it was enough to help spur me along.  Which is how I&#8217;ve gotten where I am today.<\/p>\n<p>So now &#8220;Introspective&#8221; is being enjoyed and shared with others.  It&#8217;s such a good feeling- and that&#8217;s what keeps me going.  It&#8217;s amazing how much we can accomplish when just one person gives us the encouragement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.AmyGuidry.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.AmyGuidry.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another painting from my New Realm series has a new home.
