A Painting a Day

SOLD


It is early here and normally I am not up this early on a Tuesday. My grandson is on life support at a children's hospital in Ft Worth. Unless there is any brain activity this morning through another round of testing, he will be pulled from life support. We spent the majority of yesterday and last night at the hospital with family, and the healing power of love for all the pain was astonishing.

I decided sleep was not happening despite not going to bed till almost midnight, and I know my daughter and son are already back at the ICU right now....so I will put on my IPOD as to not wake my loving husband, and take out my emotions on my canvas. My dying grandson came to me in a dream this morning around three fifteen, I think that is what startled me awake. He said, "Mum, here I am" and had this huge silly grin on his face. He was surrounded by a rich golden light. Many of you do not know what blessings he brought to all of us. He was a gifted challenged child with severe autism. Three weeks ago he was here at the house painting with me in the studio, his first true painting on real canvas. He used acrylics and his parents have this canvas hanging in their den. It will continue on with their family for their lifetime.

Not sure how much posting will happen. I wondered why on Sunday despite a hectic schedule, I was in the studio until late afternoon painting and then after returning from dinner with friends, I painted more. I will post some of these through out the week. The one above I finished up on Saturday evening. Very vivid chocolate and red complimented with turquoise and marigold.

Grace to you all,

Laurie
