Guess what? I just found out that I’ve been accepted into the Washington Society of Landscape Painters (WSLP). Getting an acceptance into this group has been a goal of mine for years. Yay! Yay! Yay!

This is a big deal.

Why? 

​Read on....
  • Validation is always a wonderful thing. Washington Society of Landscape Painters is definitely a select group that is limited to only 40 members. To get accepted couldn't make me happier. 
  • Washington Society of Landscape Painters is an organization I have been watching for over ten years.
  • The members are accomplished landscape painters who consistently produce stunning works of art. 
  • As a member, I will participate in plein air painting excursions, which are always good for my art practice.
  • The group provides exhibition opportunities that will increase the visibility of my art alongside exemplary painters.  
  • I had considered applying for membership for a long time, but I knew that the process was arduous. First, I needed to secure a sponsor (many thanks to Trisha Adams). I was also required to  join the group for plein air painting excursions. Finally, my work needed to be reviewed and accepted by their governing board in order to be accepted.

Having lived in the Washington, DC area for decades, I have visited the Torpedo Factory Art Center more frequently than I can begin to say. Between taking classes, visiting artist studios and showing my work in juried exhibitions there, I have spent countless hours at this artist's mecca. 

For years I have also considered throwing my canvas into the ring to become a part of the Torpedo Factory Artist's Association. That said, I knew that being accepted was not an easy task. Fear played a role as it often has when I was faced with the clear-eyed possibility of rejection. 

In fact, I experienced that rejection a few years ago when I applied. Didn't even make it through the "first round" in the battle. 

This time was different. The art goddesses smiled on me, and I recently received my acceptance. I am thrilled.

Studies have shown that living with art makes you happier. How great is that? You benefit whether you are making your own art or whether you are enjoying someone else's creations. ​
These positive results were not what I was looking for when I realized that I hadn't taken enough time out of my studio to see art in other settings. But I can tell you that I definitely felt the uplift when I went to the opening reception of the new exhibition: John Singer Sargent—Portraits in Charcoal at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC. To bring that joy to you,  I have included some of my favorite pieces from that exhibition. See below:
