‘Be like a weed’.
It has taken quite a while but suddenly I have realized that it is lovely to be free of everything.
You can say what you like, you can do what you like and you can think what you like.
Life advice of Trudy Smith, a 102-year-old painter from Australia. She began to paint at age 85.
Embracing your inner weed…
Art is freedom.
I began painting in oil, semi-abstract profiles, maybe to understand myself or to feel free of things that were happening around me, and I did not like.
I love to always have some paper pad, and blank canvas ready to be painted.
And things comes out like magic… time stops altogether.
I create abstract artwork organically.
And I love to work anywhere I go and on any surface. I use sharpies, oil markers, acrylic, oil sticker, watercolor paint, and other materials.
Lately I’m using an iPad to create digital art and make them available online, so people can download have fun and inspiration.
