So here goes...<br /></div><br />Painting for me is a way to talk about the world and it lets you tell your own story. Although I live in a small country town, it has a vibrant art scene that nutures artists.<br /><br />This is a collection of my work from a show I did in May this year called <span style="font-style: italic;">Water from the Moon</span>; some of this work will also be displayed in my next show at the end of October, this year.<br /><br />The work is about two main themes; water and the powerful influence of the moon. The title comes from an expression from Christopher Koch's book, <span style="font-style: italic;">The Year of Living Dangerously</span>, which loosley translated from an Indonesian phrase meaning the impossible is possible.<br /><br />I'll keep you posted as we move toward deadline for the next show and will put up some of the other works as they come out of the pipeline.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3880430424447010116-7829256554263301505?l=wendynugentartist.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Wendy Nugenthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01610746220125772678noreply@blogger.com2
