This is a word image of "bloom" which was my focus word for 2009. I found it very rewarding to adopt a word for the year. As I focused on 'bloom' in 2009 I started to spend more time on my artwork and I even got up the nerve to start this blog. It seemed that my art "bloomed" during the year. Painting this image recently, I had fun remembering my art journey in 2009 and capturing the word in an unexpected way without flowers or other plants.....
P.S. I got the idea of a focus word for the year from Christine Kane, and a word image from Laure Ferlita. My word for 2010 is Clarity, and I'm still working on that one!!!

Danny - thanks for the feedback. I'm flattered that you like this image and would like to use it on your blog. I've been thinking about your request and I've come to a decision that I do not want to give permission to others to use this image as the image is very personal to me. This image speaks to my personal journey.
Dear Claire
gotcha and UNDERSTAND.....i take back my request, and as fellow blooming traveller, i salute you, Claire!

And Claire, just a note: autobiographical me: re "It seemed that my art "bloomed" during the year. " Being named a Bloom, as a kid and teenager and even adult, 61 now, i always liked the idea of BLOOMING and always felt in my mind and heart that my mission on life was not to be rich or famous but just to "bloom" and I did and I am and I still hame miles to go before I sleep..... SMILE...thanks for your artwork, it made my day! and still does all week long...
