A Painting a Day


OH MY>... we have at least 3 inches or more of snow outside....we were up at four to let the dogs out as I made Terry's breakfast and there is snow thickly covering everything. The hood of his truck has more like six inches.... it is amazing since we rarely get snow. I will try to get out for pictures later!!!

Annie the dog is doing better...we couldn't feed her until this morning...and I just fed her. I pray that her tummy and intestines are better because I do not want to spend my day cleaning up after her! She was so sad yesterday wanting to eat and I felt like a bad mother eating in front of her!

This painting was completed yesterday. it is pretty wet. It was interesting to paint as it developed I truly was working on balance color etc. I always paint away and as I finish things up begin moving paint on the composition to different areas for contrast. I use the palette knife and pick up color from one side and lay it on another side. That is what finally finished this one!

more later...must get to painting for a special mission. FOUR BRANCH RANCH
Kathryn is the owner and I will be painting for her this weekend...starting in the next ten minutes. I had a delightful conversation with her yesterday and was thrilled to find she is a believer as well. God has a way in His plan to put people in our lives, and as often as I sit and wonder, Okay, not sure why, but we will take this journey in faith, He then pops in something fresh and surprising...and that is what Kathryn was to me. I have to thank Kelly Williams for the connection...he has purchased several of my paintings and it is from him that Kathryn contacted me.

Remember what I wrote several days ago? Open the doors that I am suppose to go through and close the ones I need to walk away from...give me the wisdom to recognize the people I need to walk away from that drain my energy and the knowledge to reach out to those that are in need or that I need to connect with. I heard this on Good Morning Texas about a month ago and it has been a mantra for me every day since.

Have a super Friday!

Grace,
Laurie
