$499


Good morning. I did not make Dallas this morning...headache is a lingering thing right now. I am struggling with some hands I am painting for a commission piece. I have prayed about it and it hit me to try it over on a linen or smoother canvas. I really dislike starting over since I have 12 hours in this painting, but it is not working.... so today we will regroup. Meanwhile yesterday I finished this painting....VERY thick paint and a criss cross pattern. Bright and cheery and ready to finish drying to travel to it's new home, where ever that might be!

We have MAC class again this afternoon. MAC Quicken...ugh ugh UGH UGH. Can't say it loud enough and to top it off, QUICKEN lies...I was told it was identical to the PC version and it IS NOT. It is watered down milk toast in comparison. SOOOO we enrolled into QUICKEN MAC classes to make sure I am not missing something. Tomorrow I may appologize! BUT meanwhile we are learning more each day about our IPODS etc. Terry downloaded the TV series BONES to put on his.... I only have music on mine. I need to update it with some photos now of my work...That takes a bit of time. I have had zero time.

I am off to paint for a new store in Rockwall Texas. Horses of course! I am excited about it and the folks putting it in...from the description it is new and growing and they need horse art work to sell. I have a new arrival of canvas from Rupen (Canvasplace.com) and I am ready to roll!

Grace to you all, have a great FRIDAY!

Laurie

MAC classes - um, sounds like what I need, I'm fuddling around with my new one, got all my files transfered over, but sometimes have quite the head-banging moment of frustration!! (and I'm sure there's more where that comes from!)ha. Your painting hasn't suffered for all your trouble though - beautiful as ever! Happy painting,Roxanne!

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
