Testimonials:

I was looking for art that would make me smile when I looked at it. I love the style of your painting. I love the abstract designs and the depth and the layers. I love that I could spend months looking at it and discover new things in it that I never saw before. But most of all I LOVE how vibrant your paintings are.

After seeing your posts as you worked on various pieces, I started thinking about the possibility of purchasing one. Although I was worried that I would end up with buyer's remorse, I finally came to the conclusion that, if your art was that compelling on-line, it would only be more so in person. I decided that I'd combine mom's day/bday/anniversary and give myself something special. My experience was phenomenal! Ultimately, I think your art just makes people happy, which is no small thing.

I am thrilled to see the pieces I got from you today on my own wall. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent so generously. Who knew that painting as a way of healing could result in such an explosion of life and happiness... I wish you strength and success. (And I have fantasies of you painting every single wall in my house.)

I was looking for whimsical, freedom, colour, play and inspiration in art. My experience with Belinda's art is incredible. You are very talented, there is such raw emotion, play and beauty in your art, and you are an incredible free spirit and beautiful soul.

Your art just speaks to me. Its like a song sung straight to my heart. Do I have enough wall space for everything I want?!! May need to take up a second job for my art addiction.  I give people art tours when they come to my home. I just love you!!!
Ashley Farris
I had some concerns about buying from you because I have known you for so long and we see each other almost everyday.  If something would have gone wrong, would it have made things uncomfortable between us?  My experience was great.  You really took the time to figure out what I was looking for and I think that the painting suits my family perfectly. I would absolutely recommend you to a friend. Your work is beautiful and your prices are reasonable.
Keri
I absolutely do recommend your art to everyone I meet. I'd say to someone interested in buying a painting that "It'll make you happy every day to have a piece or 10 of your art." I love that I can come to your home and buy. That you are warm, friendly and involved with the community. 
Ashley Farris
My daughter LOVES your art, she is inspired by it and it makes her smile when she sees it - as do I. Organizing our drops offs without Aubrey seeing is always fun. I would say to someone considering buying Belinda's art: Do something right now that makes your heart smile.

Purchasing online was really easy and your communication with me regarding the status of my purchase including shipping was really good. As soon as I opened the box, I was extremely pleased that I had decided to take a chance and buy it. Both of the paintings I have purchased hang in my office. Almost everyone has something to say or notices something different about them -- the folks from our fine arts division especially.
Elizabeth Scherer
I look at your work and escape to another world! Your art is amazing. I want to look at it daily.

It All Begins With Me

By Filed Under: Painting, Rainbows Tagged With: , , , , ,

Today I learned a lot about myself by listening to a podcast about relationships. I learned that if I am not feeling desire for my partner, it is most likely because I am shut off and not responding to his advances, and not really listening to his needs. It is fascinating to me, because in this area in particular (desire), I have always thought it to be the responsibility of the other partner to “step it up”. I speak of taking responsibility for my emotions, but this is an area in which I was seriously not seeing myself.

This led to my painting, “It Begins With Me”. If I want more desire in my life, then it begins with me. If I want more love in my life, it begins with me. It is time to do my own work, and stop waiting for my partner to take care of it for me.

There are so many more gems in this episode (and all the podcast episodes I have listened to), including research about the 13 actions taken by couples who continue to have vibrant and fulfilling sex lives. I will listen again, and I highly recommend you do, too!

Voices

By Filed Under: Painting, Rainbows, Studio Tuesday Tagged With: , , , , ,

I really let this painting go in the direction it wanted, and all these little creatures popped up. They remind me that all the voices in my head that are telling me what to do aren’t really my own; they belong to others. My real voice comes from deeper inside my body, and usually it doesn’t speak in words. <3

Today only, this painting is half price!

How Have I Loved Myself Today?

By Filed Under: Painting, Rainbows, Studio Tuesday Tagged With: , , , , ,

How have I loved myself today? I don’t always (let’s be honest – I usually don’t) acknowledge the ways that I am showing up for myself. Today I went to the gym! Yay! My body is being celebrated. Today I painted. Yay! My spirit is having fun!

How have you loved yourself today?

Who I Am

By Filed Under: Painting, Rainbows Tagged With: , , , ,

Back in the early days of our relationship, Braden would say this to me: “I love who I am when I am with you.”

We have had some challenging moments lately, moments where I don’t feel I am being my best self. Saying this expression of self-love is helpful to change the course of my thoughts. I also want to remember to love who I am when I am not with you.

This Life Is Mine

By Filed Under: Painting, Rainbows Tagged With: , , , , ,

I eat crap and shame myself for it? That was my choice.
I hear something the wrong way and take it personally? That was my choice.
I spend my time procrastinating instead of getting things done, or doing what I actually want to be doing? That was my choice.
I’m not saying it’s easy to choose something else, but I have the awareness in the moments that I do these things that there is an alternative. I don’t always choose the alternative, that thing that will be “good for me”, mostly because I am in the habit of living in my stories. Choosing to create a new story takes work, and sometimes I get lazy.

I Can Do Anything

By Filed Under: Painting, Studio Tuesday Tagged With: , , , ,

I allowed myself to play this morning. I noticed lots of judgements (“not good enough”), and lots of pressure (“this isn’t real art”, and “who would want this?”). But there were also moments of pure enjoyment, relaxation, and fun.

Here’s to feeling the fear and doing it anyways.
