About this item
by Susan Simmons (Author), Karen Simmons (Editor)
Susan Simmons is a full time artist and has just gotten her feet wet in the poetry areas, with the intention of implementing gratitude through fifty years of artwork with her uplifting, inspiration words. "The road here on the earth is a short and bumpy path. It brought me solace to create this book. This isn't a "candy-coated" view of my life, but a real visual glimpse of emotions of my life although the details are not specified." Artwork takes center stage in Picturing Gratitude
The artist says, "As we fly around the sun year after year on this great blue and green ball we call "home:, we experience all the surprises of being on the planet - good times, bad times, easy and difficult ones. Yet, if we truly live in present gratitude, we can recognize and appreciate the blessings and gifts that bring us little joys from one moment to the next.
As I assembled the artwork for this book, I realized I had gone through many transformations during my life so far, and yet, I am still me! I am grateful to be me and have this amazing human experience! The incredible attributes that grace this planet continue to astound me with joy every day. I've had good times and bad times. I've had wins and losses. The way I keep myself moving forward is to be grateful for what I have now versus what I have lost. I continue to paint and live life for what it is - life!"
