A Painting a Day.



It is a glorious Sunday morning. Last night Terry and I drove into Dallas to attend an organ concert at St Paul United Church of Christ on Lover's Lane. It is an old German Congregation that has been in existence over 125 years I believe. The organ is a unique pipe organ. It is especially unique because it is in a small church, but it is unbelievable in sound. The guest artist was Bradley Welch. Born in Tennessee, he now lives in Dallas and is quite accomplished. Yes, we bought a CD and yes I will be painting by organ music this week.
This is also the church Terry and I were married in many years ago.

The posted painting was finished yesterday. It is heavily layered with paint and may take awhile to cure! But I had fun with the colors and the play of contrasts through out the painting.

Today I am working on a commission piece...one is hydrangea for an upcoming anniversary gift. The hubby saw my last piece and graciously contacted me to do one for his home as a surprise to his wife. The second one is similar to Dad's Red Flowers. It sold off this blog and another person contacted me and I am doing one in a similar size but taller. I am eager to work on it too!

Hopefully later today the kids will come over so we can cook out hamburgers etc. I have cold watermelon, organic white corn on the cob, homemade German potato salad and I still need to plan dessert. Suggestions? I am hoping Justin has Jonathan. We have not seen or heard from our grandson in a long long time. This is the one we helped raise and took care of for the first seven years of his life while his mother was 'on vacation'. He will be ten this year and has changed tremendously since living with her full time. I will just leave that as I wrote it and let your imagination carry itself.

Dare to believe today....dare to believe that the love of our Lord surrounds and upholds you.

Grace,
Laurie

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
