Art in Bloom

Hi! I admit it, I bombed my Art in Bloom application so I did't get selected this year. I am still excited to go and see all the interpretations of those selected for the floral art part of Art in Bloom at The Saint Louis Art Museum. I don't know, I don't think I took it for granted that I had been in it for the past good number of years, my application just wasn't as solid as the others. So, room for improvement. Game on. So, these are my thoughts out loud. It really is a joyful event bringing the spring fever full on, and every year. Just want to congratulate those who made it in, for a job well done! I have to admit it's nice to not have to hustle this year and get a break. Hope to be back next year, though! I feel left out. Boo hoo but I am looking forward to the next year's challenge. Fingers crossed! The pic is of the Matisse painting Bathers with a Turtle from my 1st time in Art in Bloom. God bless the Saint Louis Art Museum. Do what you can to support it.
