I heard from the gallery on Wednesday, as I thought: rejected. I took it harder then I thought, though...I still don't want to tak about it...or paint, for that matter...I guess like everything else, this, too, will pass. But for the meantime, I just can't help feeling like a failure.

About Me
- MarilynM
- I am originally from Caracas, Venezuela. Moved to the States in 2002, I'm married, we share our house with two dogs, two parakeets and a cat. I love good books, good movies, and Anime (yes, I'm pretty geeky). I am an avid reader and a writer. I will read anything I can get my hands on, from Dostoevsky to Sic-Fi novels, to classical American Literature, to Magical Realism and Fantasy. Anything goes. In another life I was a Materials Engineer.

Oh Marilyn...
You are NOT a failure. I just heard the story recently of Thomas Edison and how many attempts it took before he had a successful light bulb. The ones that didn't work just were part of the journey and taught him what he needed to change to get to the success.
Please don't let this stop you. Pursue your dreams. It WILL happen for you and there is something better out there. Trust in that and believe it; oh yes, believe in yourself too. I do!
Wishing you all the best.

Thank you... for your words, for your support,for your friendship, for everything. Thank you for believing in me, specially when I'm having so much trouble believing in myself. Thanks. I will get through this slump,I will keep trying, most importantly, I will learn from this. I have to, or I won't be able to face myself again.
Please don't let it stop you from painting. Remember it is ONE person's opinion not everyone's. You had the courage to pursue a gallery opportunity; that takes guts. Believe in yourself. Your work is too good and unique to think of yourself as a failure. Good Luck!
