Thank you so much for selecting my photo for Special Recognition in the Nature Art Competition. This site is a wonderful avenue for emerging artists to learn about all aspects of what goes into cultivating a career and understanding the steps required to achieving success as an artist. 

It is great to have an on-line community of support combined with the necessary tools to help grow from a fledgling newcomer into an artist with wings. 

The helpful spirit found within in Light Space & Time has given me a new sense of confidence. The recognition of my art has created a new drive inside me. I believe I can chase my dreams and live my passion. 

Positive affirmation is one of the most effective ways to foster motivation and champion the art novice. Thank you for the opportunities this site provides through competitions, marketing, and shared lessons.
