When people buy a mini art feeling, they sometimes write why or for who they are buying it. My curious nature loves that but mostly I'm very touched by the story behind it.One of my feelings courage went as a gift to a person who just recovered from a coma. Another one went as a gift to someone who's battling with cancer at the moment.
I hope that both these people will find the courage to conquer the hard times that they are going through. I feel touched to know that my work has reached their hearts and that my little feeling 'courage' will be part of their journey...
Both these sales are in my heart more then any other and I quite often look back and hope that 'courage' will help them remember to go on in hard times and that they are surrounded by people who care about them...
What touches you?
It's such a wonderful feeling knowing you are doing something that will help others.

Oh Mitsy, I am also touched by this post, I can imagine the warmth you feel inside knowing that your feelings go to people who really get comfort an courage out of it!
ReplyDeleteOh my! So touching!

Mitsy, thank you so much for sharing! It's so touching!
ReplyDeleteYou know, Mitsy, how I heart "Courage" Your work is connecting at many levels.
ReplyDeleteI was admiring your tiles the other day, wonderful. Love the color tones! Your Kiln has proven to be a fantastic tool, more to come in the future, I'm very certain. We, your fans, follow your every step:)
Visual art is like that--transcending barriers and conveying emotions and feelings that words or other art-forms like music do in just another way. What gets me is that this is possible with an inanimate object, and the artist can be long gone, but his way of communicating can remain just as strong. People interpret the same thing in different ways--it's mind-boggling!
ReplyDeleteThat is so nice to know, I'm sure- knowing how attached you are to your "feelings". :)
ReplyDeleteIt is so wonderful if you touch others in a positive way. When you inspire and warm someones heart. That is the best part of creating :0D
ReplyDeleteI love it when people share a part of their lives when buying something, it always makes me smile! So nice that courage will give people courage!
ReplyDeleteI love more than anything when my customers write to me to let me know how they like my clothes. It touches me.
ReplyDeleteWell your courage feeling is quite special to Lee and myself, and you should be sooo proud at having made a work of art that can touch so many people in so many different ways. Who doesn't like to have a little reminder that you need to have a little courage now and again? (I need that reminder everyday!!)
ReplyDeleteMitsy, your pieces are so lovely and so evocative...it only makes sense that others would feel the connection to the strength of your work.
ReplyDeleteLovely stories...I wish them both the best. :^)
lovely stories - the human side of selling on etsy is so great. your work is really evocative and completely human :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet! I'm sure your feelings are going to touch your friends who receive it and give them courage to fight the battle. I'm touched by all of the feelings. Feelings are the most amazing and best way to describe how one feels at different time, different moment, different experiences.... glad that we have feelings and to share, show how we feel, to be understood, to be embrace, to be fully human! : ) And to give another one's the feelings too such as love, joy, peace n more! Yeah! : )
ReplyDeleteOh Mitsy.. I feel touched too.
