 After the Afternoon Rains
9 x 12  Oils on Canvas


A flash back from 2014 and a sweet small enticing painting 9 x 12 in size.  My color addiction really shows in this piece with my collected painted ponies!  Contemporary palette knife horses straight from my studio!

One of Those Days

 It was a delicious night of sleep... and I woke up late, but still dove into my Bible readings, which I do each morning. JOYFUL CELEBRATION greeted me... with remembering it is Holy Week. 

The sermon yesterday at Countryside Church was breath taking at many levels. Factual to the time of Jesus and what he experienced as he was falsely arrested, people falsely testified against him, he was passed from court to court only to be sent back to the original court. The Jewish Court that wanted him dead.  Our Pastor was very moving as he walked us through the timeline.  In truth they remind you of what is happening today.

As this Holy Week begins, I place my mind and heart with the celebration.  In life we are often brought to our knees with pain and anguish before we are brought back to the grace of God.  

I sit here blogging... headache creeping in. Hubby sprayed Lysol in the house without opening windows... It does not take much. I do not use Lysol in the house. It is not an organic product and I react to most things used today.  I did walk three miles this morning before eating delicious homemade oatmeal!  I am striving for this to not be ONE OF THOSE DAYS....not this week.  Keep my eyes on God, my thoughts on His words, and let go of all stress and worry.   You can do it too. It is a fabulous feeling not worrying about things. JOYFUL CELEBRATION...

Matthew 21:9
The multitudes who went in front of him, and those who followed, kept shouting, “Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
