A Few Awards to Share!

So I was given a few awards recently. This one came from Soulbrush who writes ever so lovingly from London. She was right on the money...I do have a passion for painting without a doubt. Thank you, Soul, for all of your inspiration and kindnesses.



This Kreativ Blogger award was presented to me by Michele who writes Artistic Buffet from Texas. Believe me when Michele says buffet, she means it. With this award, I am supposed to share seven things I love with you. Now many of you have read lists like this from me before, so here is an abbreviated version. I love:

1. My family and friends
2. Painting on canvas, although I am enjoying some seriously heavy paper at the moment.
3. Reading novels and art books.
4. Traveling
5. Time alone
6. Mugs of hot English tea on cold days as I sit by a wood fire
7. Icy drinks on hot summer days

I feel very honored to have been chosen by two wonderful bloggers for these awards. I am not so sure I am feeling all that deserving, since lately I have not been blogging all that much, nor do I feel as though I have been all that creative. Never-the-less, I am truly touched by your generosity and kindnesses.

Now with both of these awards, I am supposed to send them on to other people. This is the part of awards which really bothers me. I have so many blogs I absolutely adore, and I am finding it impossible to make the choice. So here is what I am going to do. If you are listed on my blog list (in the right-hand column) and would like either or both of these awards, please consider yourself chosen to receive them. If you would like the awards and are not listed on my blog list, by all means leave me a comment and enjoy the award! How does that sound?

I wish for you all lots of creativity and a true passion for the work you do.

Have a Delightful Day!

Kim - Your work and your art are well deserving of the Kreativ Blogger Award... that's why I gave it to you.

Thank you for your kind words on my "My Sad Weekend" blog entry. I think everyone will be alright. ~Michele

Thank you, Michele! You are truly kind and generous.

I am glad to hear everyone will be okay down there. The shock had to be overwhelming. You are there for a reason, my dear!

Love,

Kim

Hi Kim,
Congrats on the awards.

Hot Green Tea hits my spot. oh, that sounds a little um... naughty.

I've been cut down to a 3 day work week, leaving me more time for painting... and my creativity and passion for painting has re-sparked.

Hi Kim,
Congrats on the awards! You so deserve the Passion for Painting! I agree, a good hot cup of tea says it all.

soulbrush said...

so glad you enjoyed it and yes well deserved.

Andrea and Kim said...

Hello Suki!

Mmmm, that cup of tea sounds fantastic! I have to say when it is cold outside, I can't seem to get enough!

I am so glad you will enjoy these rewards. You so deserve both of these, Suki! I am glad you grabbed them.

Love,

Kim

Andrea and Kim said...

Chewy, I don't mind if you are naughty...why not, you know? A LITTLE naughty never really hurts, right...did that sound naughty, too? :)

Green tea...I like that, too. I just can't drink a lot of it or my stomach goes wonky on me. Probably because it helps to have a bit to eat when you have green tea.

Yeah! I can't wait to see more Chewy paintings! Although I am sorry about the time cuts (if you are)!

Love,

Kim

Andrea and Kim said...

Hello Dianne...My English Tea Loving Friend (only you are the real thing...I was only an expat in England).

Dianne, please take these awards and run with them. They both are perfect for your blog!

Love,

Kim

Andrea and Kim said...

Hey Chewy!

You take these awards, too! You get that painting going and run with these two awards...they would go nicely over there where you stick things on the back of your headboard. :)

Andrea and Kim said...

Hugs Soul!

You are a dear!

Love,

Kim

marianne said...

Congratulations Kim! You totally deserve these awards! You are a great painter and a great blogger!

San said...

You are most deserving of these beautiful awards, Kim, you impassioned, painting, creative blogger!

And you are generous-spirited to offer them up to us too.

Andrea and Kim said...

Thank you, Marianne! There are just so many lovely people who read here, so I hope you grabbed any you did not already have!

Love,

Kim

Andrea and Kim said...

Thank you, Faca!

Andrea and Kim said...

Thank you so much, Fiona!

I am afraid I am not such a good blogger these days. I have found it rather hard to get to the computer.

I hope all is well with you...I have been interested in all which is going on in London these days.

Love,

Kim

Andrea and Kim said...

Thank you San!

Well, the passion is clearly there, but it is the application which is challenging these days! :)

I am sure you understand and hope you grabbed some of these for yourself!

Love,

Kim
