A Painting a Day

CLICK here to bid.


Sunday morning. Short note today. Painted this pretty girl yesterday, determined and a bit wild! There is an underlay of blue acrylic which cannot be seen peaking through anywhere because of the four layers of oil paint on top of it! A play of contrast with orange and blue, purple and yellow....follow the flow of the mane....oh I forgot there is impasto mixed into the edges over the blue acrylic layer but before the oil layers...hence there is a deep ridge carved out for the horse.


Last night was spent in prayer for several hours before falling asleep. It does not surprise me this morning to take in hand my daily word and read the words AWAKEN at the top of the page. At Bible study on Friday night we shared talk over praying for direction to serve God as he needs us, not as we think we should serve, and to allow Him control, and not to control. Being quiet to listen to him is always the hardest thing for me. To lay in bed at night to pray and then listen with an open heart. To be with God is to have a relationship with him, an active daily one...not all GOD WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR ME TODAY....GOD FIX THIS FOR ME TODAY, GOD HELP ME TODAY.... we are definitely needy. We seem to forget to ask, Lord, what can I do for you today? In what manner may I connect with others to spread your love? Lead me to where I may take your light and do your will. Oh, and Lord, thank you. Thank you for the bounty of life you provide, the day, the world, the family and friends, the food...for the sun as it rises, the birds as they sing, the butterfly on the bush, my husband, my children, my home and the dogs at my side. Are you thankful for something?

Grace,
Laurie

The Thought:  Our youngest daughter is still very ill.   I am pumping her full of fruit and juices, mucinex and tylenol etc but it is not a positive thing right now. 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
