Fall is in the Air

Wow, I seriously can't believe how time has passed since my last blog.  I have been so busy painting . . . preparing pieces for a gallery in Washington, painting my piece for the St. Albert Legacy Mural, preparing pieces for the Night of Artist show in November and the list goes on.  How blessed I am to do what I absolutely love! 

I also have been busy helping my sister-in- law Kathy and her husband Brad at their new home.  On Thanksgiving weekend my dad and I joined them to put in their windows and doors.  What a beautiful day we had to do this and I was again reminded of how blessed we are to live in an amazing country and have so much space here.  For many of you who know me I immigrated from Iran over 23 years ago and although Canada is my home now, I remember what it was like in Iran.  My father and my siblings with their families are still in Iran and I am constantly reminded how we are so fortunate here for our freedom.

More and more I have been thinking about how grateful I am, perhaps it helped with Thanksgiving just passed but I have challenged myself and I challenge you to be grateful each day.  My heart is full with gratitude as I look to my faith, my family and my art.  Joy fills my heart and I can't wait to see what is in store . . . . as we celebrate this fall season, awaiting the winter I am reminded that my art too has seasons . . . . and in this art season I look to take my art to a new level - one that will expand the exposure and availability of my art to my collectors and to new art buyers.  Join me on the next leg of my journey as I gear up for the ride of my life!

Blessings to you,
Saeed

P.S. If you get some time, I encourage you to go see the movie "Courageous"  It is the best movie I have seen in my life . . . until next time...
