Good morning! Today is gorgeous, sixty degrees and sunny. I could not have ordered a better day! I give thanks and praise to the LORD for His beauty and the weather!
Meanwhile this morning I finished this Venice Sunrise and have it listed on Artbyus.com.
THICK paint in my tradition but with a paint brush and brilliant colors.
I am working on a second large commission piece of roosters today, so maybe tomorrow I can post that one...it is a long paint with it with at least seven layers of paint and impasto!
Yesterday at the grocery store we were checking out. Krogers always hires mentally challenged individuals and we have always appreciated this. I think more so after losing Grant. As the man was trying to figure out how to use our cloth grocery bags (I take my own) Terry gently helped him and was so tender with this man, who was at least 35 years old. I sucked it up but by the time we hit the door out I burst into tears over Grant and realizing he would never have even this small opportunity. I had to really release the tears and know he is with the Lord and it remains to leave emptiness here and often we will be reminded of him. Hopefully I will grow stronger and not break down so easily. My lesson is simple, trust and know Grant is with God and this is part of His larger plan.
Grace,
Laurie
