Sandra Cornelius
“Granny”
I am one of Sandra’s 31 grandchildren. I gave her two of her 28 great
grandchildren. Being her granddaughter has been the greatest adventure! It’s
what made me strong, it made me artistic, and it made me a smart ass! I feel
sorrier for those of you who didn’t get to meet her than I do for those of us that
lost her.
My granny was a
badass, she was
funny, she was smart,
she was ... honest.
Brutally sometimes,
but she believed in
you and she wouldn’t
settle for you doing
anything less than
your best. She’d
listen to you bitch,
and she’d even bitch
with you, but then she’d tell you to put on your big girl panties and deal with
it. She could always make you laugh and some of my favorite memories are
sitting underneath the house, with a Georgia Peach (vodka drink), and just
gossiping or planning our next project.
But the greatest thing my granny ever said to me was said one day while she
was helping me with a painting I was really disappointed with. She told me,
“Art’s not meant to be looked at up close.” At first I laughed. “It’s simple really,”
she told me, “Take a step back and you won’t notice those tiny mistakes.”
And I think that applies to so much more than painting. Sometimes we have to
give ourselves a break, take a step back because the little mistakes aren’t that
obvious in the big picture. I think it’s all those little imperfections that make our
lives unique and important. “Art’s not meant to be looked at up close,” so don’t
sweat the small stuff.
Be like Sandra and plant some roses, pour yourself a drink, and enjoy the island
breeze as she had for the last 38 years. She wouldn’t want us to miss her and
mourn her. She’d want us to live and love!
