Bambi is proud of her friend Aline Acaf from Amherst for having discovered her passion for painting during the Nova Scotia lockdown. You will see why in this post featuring her talent!
To begin with, Bambi would like to say a few words about Ms. Aline Acaf (or A. for short). The world is small, If you are from the Maritimes or from Lebanon, you may know her or may have heard of her. Who knows? You may even recall having read her reflections on the catastrophic Lebanese financial crash on this blog in December, 2019 (Bambi had a chat wit her). This being said, many of you will be discovering this artist’s talent for the first time.
Actually, Aline A. is talented in so many ways to the point that Bambi does not know from where to start. Well, here are some examples: She is a mother (of three wonderful adult children), a spouse, a friend, a volunteer at the Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre, an award-winning volunteer within her community supporting newcomers, a cook (and cooking teacher to Bambi’s spouse… Bambi being a hopeless case :)!), and last but not least she is now a passionate, diligent (taking courses even), and inspiring artist!
Aline, many thanks for having accepted Bambi’s invitation to post your beautiful paintings on her blog. Bambi is honoured! She is not saying so because she is biased by our friendship. She is saying so, even if she knows nothing about painting. However, she can recognize talent and be moved by it when she sees it. This is why she is proud of you, today more than ever!
As a matter of fact, Bambi could intuitively guess your talent many years ago when we took a one-time workshop generously offered by a Sackville (NB) incredibly talented artist, Ms. Angela Thibodeau. Yet, she is happily speechless by your beautiful paintings and refined artistic talent!
If you recall, Artist Thibodeau taught us how to paint a bird :). Well, Bambi owes you a lot for having helped her save her own painting. Although she struggled with it, she enjoyed the relaxing effect of painting and how we forget about the entire world when we are completely immersed in the moment/task. We call this the “flow state” in cognitive psychology. One must say that Bambi’s end product looked like a painting by an eight-year-old kid, to use her spouse’s teasing words. Despite this, she remains proud of her achievement to the point of exposing this funny painting in their den. Seriously now, Bambi is MUCH more proud of your painting exposed in their living room… and now on her blog!
To conclude this post, please keep up the great work Aline. Please keep sharing your passion with us and… keep having fun as well as endless flow moments! This being said, Bambi will now share Ms. Aline Acaf’s paintings with you (some come with titles; some are already sold, watch out). Following these paintings, you will see a link to this artist’s Instagram called “passionpaintbyAline” (including more paintings). Enjoy!
