Description We all know of actions, habits, or attitudes that dont quite turn out the way we had hoped. Sometimes, we buy things we dont really need. And that pizza was so delicious that you just have to eat another slice. Now, theres nothing wrong with shopping or eating or many other choices. In fact, there are lots of choices we make over and over again; yet were often baffled when were a few dollars short, or a few pounds over where wed like to be. Or when our relationships are consistently disappointing. This is true of virtually everyone; and its equally true that most of these results come as a surprise to us.Its a foible of human nature to repeat actions, habits or attitudes, even though they dont give us the results we want. Life is like a river that keeps flowing, and were often so busy paddling that we dont see the patterns in our actions and habits until theres a big enough problem to get our attention. The philosopher, Jorge Santayana, might have had human nature in mind when he said, Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.But the good news is that we need not continue to be disappointed. Awareness is the key, and sometimes even small changes are enough to break the cycle and create lasting improvements in our lives. This painting was created to celebrate that positive change, in a tangible and visible way. Every time you look at it, you'll know that you're no longer trapped in a repeating pattern. You're moving forward to claim the future you've always wanted.
Gina Lazarchik, Largo, FL Member Since May 2021 Artist Statement As an artist, I often use collage and layered paint--watercolor, oil and cold wax--to express different layers of experience. My work includes abstract, landscape and figurative pieces, as well as modern Christian art. I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Florida, and the tropical theme is the inspiration for many of my landscapes. I believe that Imagekind can help me to broaden the exposure of my work and allow me to interact with the community of my fellow artists.
