The Painting: A change in color palette. This was drawn off on canvas before the new year started but I have not been in the studio to work until today. I just finished it up last night and decided to post it right away.  I love the play of colors of the rust and blues.

The Thought:  Sometimes I have trouble with staying focused with the phone ringing all the time.  Yesterday was ONE of those days. Terry was back at work, Crystal was at school and EVERYONE decided to call.  Unfortunately it slowed me down quite a bit as I had so much to do yesterday and I only finished the one painting.  I did not even get sketching on the next ones.  My sketch book is full of future paintings... and maybe later today I can paint again.

I have ideas of going off into a weird direction and of course never know what will happen with the experimental pieces. They say a child's imagination has no limits and they can surpass our adult minds with their creativity.  I know Crystal runs circles around me with her imagination and she is 17.  I doubt her imagination will ever slow down.  Meanwhile in my limited brain I still have ideas that are different and creative and I am anxious to carry forth in faith to play creatively and experiment with my thoughts and sketches.

You too need to be free to indulge in your imagination no matter what the age.  Use this gift to create the life of your dreams and look beyond the limitations you have placed on your life. Many of those limitations are things like our 'stuff' or our 'bills' or our 'obligations' .  One day you will leave this all behind and soar with angels to new heights. Why wait totally until then?  It is time to try your wings and begin sorting out those limitations and free your life to be what God has prepared for you.

Today I am going to do that with my art work... why don't you try it in something you are doing?

The Thought:  Our youngest daughter is still very ill.   I am pumping her full of fruit and juices, mucinex and tylenol etc but it is not a positive thing right now. Does not look like we will make my older daughter's house for Thanksgiving.  I am sad because there will be new family to be attending along with everyone that has NOT been together since the dea
