A Painting a Day
Sunday early with thoughts of the day ahead. This is a painting I did Friday as Conni watched it evolve. It went through several phases as I was in and out of the studio that day. Bottom layering of about three layers of impasto and Acrylic with blended scraped colors and then the etching of the horse in oils. The eye of the horse in oils as well. Definitely raw and wild.
Today we will head up to Krum to a short church service and then I believe home to work, paint that is. Annie, Conni's seven year old has been a trooper. I taught her how to play Chinese Checkers last night and she beat me several times! She has sorted out coins for me ( I told her she could keep the quarters) and continues to mop the floor. I believe she likes my spray gun.
We all attended the wedding of my close friends Deborah and Bill yesterday and then ran to my moms to visit her and dad. That found us around more food at ST cafe in Dallas. YUMMMMM. Terry joined us. I think Conni had almond crusted chicken on wild rice, Annie wanted something simpler like PBJ, Terry and I had Salmon on Angel Hair pasta, my dad had crab cakes and mom had Maui Maui....but dessert...hummmm, there was coconut cream cake, chocolate mouse, a chocolate mouse rum layer cake....etc We were full and didn't eat any more after that meal.
Only two more days left in her visit and I will be SAD SAD to have her leave. Heard that Hubby Peter took the older two girls to Dollywood in the rain. Didn't sound like fun at all.
BUT I have never been to Dollywood!
Off to paint.... wishing you absolute peace for the day.
Grace,
Laurie
