The above collage is by one of my favorite Nashville-based artists. Not only is Cindy Wunsch's art inspirational and fun, she is one of the most positive, encouraging, genuinely caring individuals I know and also one of the best art teacher's I've ever experienced. Here's Cindy's artist statement that I loved so much I wanted to share here:

"I am someone who dreams about flowers,

who finds love angelic and  

who wonders about everything.

"I am a person who feels

that the most

romantic of life's moments can be found

in the ordinary.

"I am interested in creating works of art

as poetic as a classic song, yet make

you want to dance.

"Beneath the glossy covering of these

images you might find wallpaper, wax,

paint chips, and scraps of just about

any kind, as well as unique experiences,

old memories and simple thoughts.

"I hope they make you wonder."

I'm drawn to this particular (copyrighted) collage of Cindy's in part because of its' sentiment. So true….I have a magnet version of the image on my fridge.

The above collage was also featured in the annual Tomato Arts Festival art show at Art and Invention Gallery in our fair city's wacky, eclectic East Nashville region. "The Journey with Grace" featured Cindy's art last here in a blog post here.
