A Painting a Day

Commission Piece




This is a unique commission piece for a couple in NYC. I was THRILLED to be honored to paint this for their home. Smooth thick paint and brilliant colors create this musical composition. I hope they enjoy it...I think I told you before when I paint, I often meditate and pray about the home where the painting is going to. Often I have no clue when painting for eBay, but I do when painting commission pieces. I have learned over the years of painting, NOT to get in the way of the spirit that must travel onto the canvas. Often The artist gets in the way, again reminding me of Iris' words, EGO edging God out. Same on the canvas... when I try and control...the painting never works as well. The guitar was a delight...itunes playing on my computer with a mixture of music and I literally danced around the canvas as I worked.

Today is cold. Yesterday was Liberty's first day to help with the computer and I can honestly say I was pretty happy with a first day of learning PHOTO shop. A few bugs to iron out yet, but we will make a go of it!

My Annie Dog was sick yesterday. After spending 24 hours cleaning up her running at both ends, and with signs of blood, we were bound for our PONDER VET...PONDER TX...Dr Henderson is FABULOUS!!!! Had to pick up heart guard too....those are exp...her visit was about $175 and then add heartguard and I walked out relieved she would live despte the $345 I had just paid...told Niki I had to hurry home to paint another picture to cover the trip to the vet. Having dogs is like having children....you are sick when they are sick, and hurt when they hurt....we came home and had salmon, fresh veggies and oven toasted Italian bread and we watched an old movie with Bette Davis....MR SKEFFINGTON. I think she got an oscar for this one. It was rather long...but it was pretty good to watch her character grow old...I really like the man that played MR SKEFFINGTON...don't know who he was, would have to ask Terry.

Off to paint....running late this morning. Gotta paint to pay the VET bill!

Grace,
Laurie
