My home province of Nova Scotia has lots of beauty to share.
Ocean Sky Art/ Kevin Cameron Art is my way of sharing that beauty through my arts and crafts. Nova Scotia is fishing, farming as well as city and town folk. A diverse land and seascape for art and craft.
Although I enjoy many different art mediums and subjects I do prefer to use acrylic paint because of its durability and versatility.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was raised in a religious home. The message is often about 'sacrifice and suffering' giving meaning to life instead of balancing that with doing something you enjoy.
When I was 5 or 6 years old. I drew my first mural on my bedroom doors of a stubble faced man smoking a cigar. No one in our house even smoked! From there creativity just filtered through my whole life.
Since those days my life has been permeated with art and creativity. Some of that record you can find here.
Giving Yourself Permission
There are all kinds of artists.
Some people do art part-time and some do it for a hobby.
Then there are others, like myself, who just can't seem to be happy doing anything but art. How do you know? You just do. Something inside calls you to it. Yes it can be a tough path making ends meet.
Whatever it is that's calling you give yourself permission to follow it. Don't bury a talent that brings joy to other people. Why look for excuses to not be yourself. Today is the day. There is no tomorrow here.
To Boldly Go
The adventure for me has been gradual. No overnight success here. But that's okay. It's knowing that you're on the right path at least that matters. It's knowing that it is YOUR path. Do you feel that call to do a certain thing? Then go for it. Steer the ship in that direction.
The Journey
When did the journey with art begin? I think, for me, I was always on that path or at least had one foot on it.
Now the world is mine/yours to create what we want and to bring joy and wonder to others.
