A few days ago, Linda Roth awarded me the Liebster award. Apparently, it is awarded on the basis of what is considered a good and worthy blog that has less than 200 followers. I have a blog list of about 200 that I follow, so it is not an easy decision to come up with only 5; I would nominate almost all of them. However, I have decided to consider consistency of posts, and sharing ideas and giving help with art problems.

These lucky bloggers have the choice of passing on the Liebster to 5 more worthy blogs, or just passing.
Additionally, I must divulge 5 things you don't know about me. OK, this is an EEK for me, as I'm somewhat of a private person, but ...
I do not own a TV. I got rid of it a year ago, and don't really miss it at all, and I definitely don't miss
the advertising.
I think I could live without creating art as I do now. I could not live without a horse!
I LOVE Italy - the food, the people, the language, the art, the architecture, the landscapes ...
I have never been in a Wal-Mart.
I collect frogs - wooden, stone, clay, papier mache, glass ... anything.
OK, Linda, I paid it forward!
Congratulations on your Awsome Award, and thank you for sharing it with us.
ReplyDeleteWe loved learning those special things about you that make you unique... I think your world sounds so peaceful!

Hi Kathryn,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing my blog with the World! I really appreciate it. I love your art and potential in your paintings. You have a great idea and show the life as it is. I call it realism and you are a very good Contemporary Realism Artist!
Keep painting and inspire others :0)

Congratulations on the award! I am so glad to know that someone else lives without TV! Greetings from Italy. Rita.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Kathryn! You really deserve it! You chose great blogs to pay it forward!
ReplyDeleteOh Kath - Thanks so much for the compliment! I truly appreciate you nominating my blog for the Liebster award. So sweet of you! OMG, I can't believe you don't own a TV. I don't watch it much, but do enjoy my Netflix movies! I know what you mean about not being able to live without a horse (and for me, all my other fur babies too!) Hurray for you, never being in a Walmart!! You're my hero! Frogs hugh? Somehow that doesn't surprise me! Ribbit! Thanks again and have a great day!!
ReplyDeleteThe painting is coming on very well. I would call you a very successful person since you could actually get rid of your TV. I wish my wife could do that too, so I could watch a bit of sports ;)
ReplyDeleteCan you someday post a photo of your frog collection? It would be most interesting.
Best wishes,
