As an artist, the pursuit of art is not merely a hobby or pastime; it is a calling and a passion that shapes one’s life and legacy. For many, it transcends rational explanation. But let’s dive deep into the reasons why I, and countless others, are drawn to this enigmatic world of artistic expression.

The Career Path Chosen

I am unwavering in my commitment to the world of art. Every day I wake up with a sense of purpose, knowing that my creations resonate with and bring joy to countless individuals. This assurance in my chosen path is not misplaced – it’s founded upon daily affirmations and feedback from admirers. Their encouragement and willingness to invest in my art are testaments to its impact. The freedom of being my own boss, setting my work hours, and crafting pieces at my chosen pace and location, offers a sense of liberation unparalleled by any other profession.

More Than Just A Job

However, it’s more than just financial gain or occupational satisfaction. The emotional connection with my work and its ability to inspire others form the cornerstone of my artistic journey. This emotional urge is further intensified by the appreciation and intrinsic motivation I garner from my audience. Once personal milestones are achieved, the natural progression is to widen the scope and touch as many souls as possible, making a tangible difference in their lives.

Art as a Legacy

Art transcends its creator. Just like a timeless book, it continues its journey long after the artist’s time has passed, traveling the world, touching lives, and etching a lasting legacy. The joy of knowing that a piece you’ve created brings awe to someone else’s life is immeasurable. Through art, we gift a piece of ourselves, reflecting our emotions, ideals, and beliefs without uttering a word. This unspoken communication and its power to inspire, comfort, and uplift are unparalleled.

Intuition Over Logic

For me, the process of creating art isn’t governed by logic or rationale. It’s instinctive. I am guided by intuition, which often holds the reins, steering me toward the completion of a masterpiece.

The Female Portraits

Drawing from my background in cosmetics, my art is heavily influenced by fashion and cosmetics. This marriage of intuition, personality, and paints culminates in powerful portraits of confident women. My creations serve as gateways for many into the world of art. Their accessibility and relatability resonate with a niche audience who value aesthetics, fashion, and style. Carving out this niche has been a deliberate and rewarding endeavor.

Art is not just about painting on a canvas; it’s about narrating a story, evoking emotions, and leaving a lasting legacy. For artists, like myself, it’s a journey of self-discovery, expression, and connection.

As I always say, embrace your passion, find your niche, and let your art speak for itself.

Love,

Wendy Buiter
