For your consideration today I have some artwork from a very special person to me. They have been a constant inspiration in my life to stand up and do the things you believe in, no matter what the difficulties you face.
This piece is titled "China Nights", I liked the use of orange in this piece, the seamless sky to water transition, and the friendly little addition of the flower in the corner.
This piece is titled "Colourful Hearts" and to me represents love being squished off to the side, but still radiating strong energies.
This piece is titled "Corn Fields" but I have always called it "Message Sticks" after the Aborigines method of leaving standing sticks at important locations.
The story behind this mysterious artist is one of great hardship, they suffer from a range of physical challenges and mental issues resulting from being outcast due to differences. An epileptic fit at a young age caused an increase in cranial pressure which resulted in mild brain damage and causing some cerebral palsy which has effected her ability to perform prolonged activities.
This has never tarnished her love for the arts, and for creating beautiful music, she loves to perform and really seems to be at home when going out to do her open mike contests even if she does not have the staying power of others.
This women will always be inspiring to me, so very strong, underestimated by many. But highly intelligent and always willing to put her best foot forward no matter what the cause. I appreciate this and respect highly.
I have been encouraging her to come onto the steemit platform but because of the nature of learning things slowly I believe she finds it quite difficult to adopt to change, and so I created this post of which 100% of the reward will be given to her in the local currency as encouragement for allowing me to share this. I apologize for the low quality of the images and if you would like I will make another attempt at higher quality ones from a proper camera. (They were shot from my phone).
I would love to hear what you think of these pieces in the comments below.
This amazing artist today is my friend, is my strength and she is my family.
Please be gentle SteemIt. <3
Much love and thanks for your attention today.

A genuinely moving post Sammo.
Dear Mystery Artist,
I sincerely hope the words of the Steemians here has helped you to understand that this community will embrace you and your beautiful art.
You have a profound talent and deserve an appreciating audience.
Please take the step in the Steemit ocean, it's a fantastic place.
You have friends here already.
TremendosPercy.
To the dear mystery artist who has overcome much heartaches and sorrow, and daily reaches beyond those limitations, I see your heart in each beautiful, bold painting. Your talent reaches and touches my heart with every carefully rendered painting.
Photo one of the sunset in bright, bold colors, still high and perfect in the sky basking a lone boat with the intricate dragon's bust speaks to me of courage on a lonely path, perhaps at times feeling the loneliness of that solitary journey. You are fierce and bold. Your journey has changed you, and deepened your appreciation for life and beauty. The water is calm, in spite of inner turmoil in the painting, I feel viewing the boat's deep blue.
Painting two rendered with a very large heart of red reveals a deep passion for life and people. The accents of blue again reveal points of peace and balance. The green is life and renewal cupping the heart changed by challenge. The multiple white hearts representative of hope, which flutters upward and out of the painting, uplifting notes.
Painting three of the corn stalks, all but one leaning to the West are all sturdy, with different stages of strength and maturity. Only two stand straight, the smallest and the farthest stalk, still tall, still strong in spite of nature's often harsh conditions. I raised corn for many years, one harsh storm sometimes flattened the whole crop of sweet corn causing me to go and pluck the salvageable ears and leave what was not yet mature to compost for the coming year.
Come and share your art and if you feel comfortable, your thoughts with us. You will find many kindred spirits who take refuge in this art filled community. They say that the crushed petal of the rose smells sweetest, and suffering and challenge produces an emotional intelligence that produces great works.
I hope you will take that daredevil plunge to join the Steemit community and honor us with more of the same.
We support your art and respect your privacy, too. Sammo will be your protector and guide, and you couldn't ask for a better guardian. I'm wandrnrose7, I hope to see you soon.
No reply to this will do it justice.
Just know that I am forever thankful to you for taking the time to write such a detailed response, so much love for the wild wandering rose. <3
It was from the heart, and my pleasure. ❤
She sounds remarkable. Wish I could meet her!
And help her learn how to use steemit. From one disabled girl to another. <3
I will do my best golden soul. <3
Thank you for the kind words and support.
This is really inspiring , be the force with her. Thank you for sharing those beautiful arts.
She has been a constant source of inspiration to me.
Such a powerful talented woman.
Waow - I really love the colours in teh "Corn Fields", I can almost feel the suns light on my skin - beautiful!
I am absolutely IN LOVE with the first one. The colors being used to give hint at details that you fill in yourself.
And the bow ornament just makes it.
I could EASILY see that hanging on display somewhere.
I really hope your friend joins, because I need more of her art in my life.
I will do my best to bring her on board. Thanks for your kind words and support. <3
preach girl. you basically just stole the words right out of my mouth!
Nice comment.. Would love to see ur work too
Dear mysterious artist,
My name is kubbyelizabeth and it would be an honor to have you on this platform. These pictures are beautiful.
Very bold friendly warm colors. I'm curious to learn more about you. Many on here express themselves despite of their physical, emotional, and mental challenges. These so called limitations are unlimited here. It doesn't hold you back. It propels you upward and on ward depending on how you chose to express yourself to the world.
The only limit here is the one you chose to limit.
Sammo is a gifted writer and has a brilliant mind. It's hard not to compare one self to his talent and feel less then.
However, he only encourages others and seeks authenticity with every relationship he makes here. He can sense false character being portrayed and gives it no attention.
You see here we all write behind the mask of a computer screen. You can be whomever you want and whenever your ready share your true identity.
I know your amazing and beautifully talented. With lots to say and we welcome you to say it here.
What do you say? Give this place a shot. Love always Kubby
Thanks for your kind words of encouragement kubby, I think you just managed to move me in a way I have not cared to be moved for some time.
I believe we all have unlimited potential, it's just a matter of getting up, getting your feet under you, or your keyboard infront or brush in hand, and making it happen.
Thank you for the awesome comment and support, I will be sure to show this one off. <3
Soooo, after reading other people's comments I didn't realize that people weren't addressing it to your friend directly. Which I thought was the point. Glad you approved either way :-) it came from the ❤️
I like the Corn Fields, has a certain Van Gogh feel to it.
Beautiful images I enjoyed them all and they are very unique. I hope this person comes to steemit as I hope to help and support her on her steemit journey. It's amazing how she has overcome so much and still does art. Upvoted and resteemed
Thank you for your support artsy, I knew you would love this one. Hugs!!
I like the Message Sticks. I also know and respect someone who's life has given a greater share of difficulty than most. They are a constant inspiration to me and lead me to carry on when I just want to give up. You do a good thing here sir. ~Mr Dingo
Never give up, Never surrender!!
Keep wearing the hat Sir, you make amazing things and I am proud of you for your courage in making an attempt at every day.
Much gracious in giving some of your limited time to read over this post, respect and love. <3
Thanks what a peachy thing to say :-)
Second picture is my favorite! Great art
true ...that second one i would be willing to pay for
Thanks for sharing mate. You get a 100%er from me. The art work is awesome.
I'm hoping the positive response gives her a good reason to make an account, might even use some of the reward to grab one from anonsteem.
As am I Sammo...and so many more Steemians who have never seen her work or this blog. She owes it to herself and no one else to at least give it a go.
Think blue crystal persuasions. };-)>
Wow! Its really cool! Thanks! :)
Glad you enjoyed it!! <3
upgoats and respam
Legend. <3
? What does this mean @aggroed? 😊
It means he upvoted it and resteemed it.
😀 funny way!
Just trying to help a newbie on the platform with exposure and support!
Welcome to Steemit!
Yes i know @aggroed - you are very supportive and you do a lot of good work here ♡
Very cool friend.
Thank you for the kind words and support. <3
Yeah...cool...nice comment
Beautiful!
I'm so glad you enjoyed this.
Truly beautiful...nice comment...do you draw?
Very nice!
The message sticks one is my favorite. Beautiful colors.
Yeah it is one of my favorites. <3
Gorgeous
Thanks wombo, you are legendary. <3
Back at ya
I adore the first one with the little dragon in the boat! That would look beautiful on the wall of my room!
Taking that with me!
Haha, I think it's a really nice one. Really liked the little flower too. Thank you for your kind words and support. <3
You are welcome. Looking forward to see more of your art
I was considering whether I was going to rag you about the image quality, so felt relieved when you mentioned it.
They really need better images to do them justice, but even so I love the first one, and the third one even more maybe.
The second one leaves me alone a little.
If you want me to make you something from the images I would be happy to.
try and get photos reasonably square and with all the edges.
or scan and stitch.
If you want anything just ask.
big hugs and hope the post goes off
That would be awesome, thanks so much. <3
I will take better quality ones as soon as possible and ship them over to you.
Thanks again!
Beautiful!
Thank you!! <3
I think that she has an excellent eye for colours and composition. I especially love the one called "China nights". It's fantastic to look at. Thanks for sharing this and for bringing her forward, I wish her all the best.

Thank you so much for your support. You are a lovely shelly. <3
"China Nights" is my favorite as well. I love the orange- it feels like the sun is setting on the water. Absolutely stunning use of color in her work!
It is a lovely piece, thank you for your kind words and support.
My favorite of the three is the corn fields / message sticks one. Just the seemingly burning sticks and the purplesssss so beautifulssss.. gets lost
A sad but inspiring story. Please keep posting her artwork. I really like the dragon boat picture.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, much thanks for the comment and support. <3
I love the arts that ur special friend had allowed u to share with us steemians, I love the dragon which just flied out from the orange waters and it gives the mystery if the dragon palace is under these waters, and how the sunset reflects onto the water creating the orange hue and the lone boat mysteriously floating. The picture comes to me as one mysterious magical.
Colorful hearts is truly beautiful as well the heart in the middle which aligns different colors and the hearts like bubbles floating to the side.
The last one corn fields is beautiful too I love the grass colors and as u said message sticks I agree with :-)
Further ur friend sounds like a really good person which we all would really love to have as a part of the steemit community I hope soon she will have the courage to join and adapt well.
I will pass on your kind words to her, and I hope that it encourages her to join the platform. I'm very excited to see what happens. Going to help them pick out a computer next week so hopefully this helps things as well.
Thank you for your support, you are an amazing princess of the moon. <3

Nice paintings. Colour selection is vary good in all the paintings. last painting I liked most, this is the best painting. You can see depth in between field and sky. A vary good painting indeed.
Thank you for your kind words and support, to be honest I really like them all but the one you chose is very nice indeed.
Absolutely love them all but the "cornfield " Stole my heart right away! I hope to see more of her work here on Steemit!
It's very beautiful.. purplessssssssssss hissss
Wow. The message sticks is my pick. The first is equally appealing and the second just as beautiful. I really am motivated by people who defy their circumstances. Stoke that fire, Sammo. I admire what you're doing for them.
Doing what I can misterakpan, I'm thinking I will help her go pick out a computer next week as the windows xp machine she had is totally beyond saving now.
Thanks for the kind words and support, enjoy your day Sir. <3
So gracious of you, such act of kindness. Keep up the good work, distant brother. Enjoy your day too.
The bright colours are so uplifting. I especially like the "China Nights" painting.
Here is an arty cat for your friend!
Thank you so much for visiting again mew mew princess. I'm glad you enjoyed them. <3
Pleasure! They are lovely 💓💓💓
Ohh hun.. ❤ give her a big hug for me and let her know her paintings are amazing. I particularly am drawn to the last one.
I will do just that, thanks for taking the time to comment and check it out, take care and much loves. <3
Very inspirational. Next time I think about not writing, I'm going to remember this. :) Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome, I love inspiring others. It's part of my mission here.
Thanks for the comment and support, enjoy your day. <3 <3
I don't know you, eager artist, but if you are anything like my friend Sammo, you have a heart of gold and a passion that needs to be pursued. Your pieces illuminate and speak volumes. I hope that someday you can allow that light inside you to shine. You'll be the brightest light in any room you go into, and your art will bring love to the world. I believe in you.
I will happily read this to her, and let you know of the response, it's going to be a long evening for sammobot reading all these comments hahaha.
Thanks for your support friend, your kind words are worth more than gold and any upboats. <3
You're welcome. I look forward to her response. Don't ever let her give up. Side note, ask her how much she would want for "China Nights."
I can do this, keep in mind they are not in the most perfect of condition as some were made a decent time ago, but we could easily get them touched up, and I will take some further pictures if you are really interested in purchasing it, it is a large piece mind. I'm going to have to buy a tape measure now. hahaha.
Just let me know. :)
Wonderful art and a heatfelt story, the artist would be very welcome on Steemit and cope this community and she should come on herself and join us! For now I have upvoted and resteemed!
Thank you for your support, I will be sure to let her know. <3
