Hi Janet Fawcett, welcome to our community! I'm glad to see you here! When you get a chance, comment with an introduction and feel free to post with photos of your artworks and nature experiences or any questions you have 🥰

Please welcome Sarah to the community! She's an artist and grower/seller of plants. Sarah, please give everyone an introduction to yourself and tell us all what you'd like them to know about you and what you do/want to do? I'm glad you're here!

Are any of you currently submitting work to art shows/exhibits? I have entered a few this year after not entering any last year. So far nothing has been accepted, but at least not rejected yet either since the deadlines are just now approaching for all three shows. Here's the one I just entered to OPA's online spring showcase. I entered the old shed painting in the National Exhibition and if it manages to be accepted, I might be taking a trip to Steamboat Springs to attend the opening. Aside from loving Colorado, it would be exciting to make it into that show and I'd like to see it on the wall.

Hi Susan, thank you for being a part of our community here! Y'all, I met Susan in person years ago, but rarely see her or any of my friends in real life these days, and she lives fairly nearby. In these hills, 'nearby' can mean up to an hour away... distance here is measured by time it takes, not by the miles, 😆 It's one of the drawbacks to being a hermitress, I guess. But I'm glad for the internet that allows us to still make friends and interact with others far and wide. Susan, when you get a chance, introduce yourself to the group!

So, I decided to try the photo-to-video ai assist in my editing software to make an intro for my skool videos. While I still have a lot of reservations about ai in general, I do have to admit that I love this result and will most likely use it for every nature-related video I make from now on, lol.
