This painting was a journey that started about five or six weeks ago. I have shared some on this blog, but not all!  It is finished. Starting a new painting today with too many ideas floating in my head!   I am known for my Painted Pony Pulls but only have done maybe four in the past five years. There are NO others like it that I know of. Thick rich buttery Holbein Oils and NO impasto to thicken them. The are deep and rich! Yesterday and now Today The church bulletin yesterday..."There are very few REAL emergencies."  and "If you are lucky, you are currently between emergencies." Well, it caught my attention.

A quick catch up late tonight. It is after 9pm.  Freezing rain started on Sunday last weekend.  It is 28 but feels like 18 outside and it is still coming down.  Some areas the ice is over 12 inches, but on our street and patio it is about 5 inches.  We were suppose to be clear tomorrow, but now they said it will be Friday.... Saturday for sure!  Our grid has held out so far but we have been in the mid twenties or lower since Sunday. FULL CIRCLE  Do you come a full circle during your life time or even every day?  How does God fit into your life?  How does He fit into your everyday thoughts and decisions?  Every morning we have a new day before us. I have learned recently it is so much easier if I face it without too many preconceived goals or allowing fear or anxiety to creep into my mi

Thunder Snow is happening here... icy streets, lots of wrecks... and I am in long johns and sweats in my studio working. I have been on my feet painting for over three hours and stopping to fix lunch. There is a battle on this canvas, but with every challenge good evolves as bad falls away. Thus is the power of the Paint VS the Spirit of the Paint. When an Artist takes over a canvas and paints by vision alone and not by feel of heart and spirit... the painting seems void of emotion.  I am still on this journey and will share bits and pieces this week.  Beholding This is my word of the year. Reminding me always to not necessarily PUSH forward, but to step back and behold what the Lord has placed before me. This too can be a ba

"Feel like I have been absent... from life and from my studio. Caught Covid from our grandson next door... but slowly eating again.  I had great intentions the two days before I fell ill early on a Wednesday morning. In fact I was at the point of jumping in to work on some new pieces for a show in Denver... and I hope to get somethings drawn off today.  It has been a time of grit and determination. For three days I could not eat because I would throw it all up.  I dropped 7 pounds... and now I am trying to regain some back but not eating healthy as I normally do. Something about taste buds trying to work again! My poor hubby came down with it just as I was coming out of it all. The illness was three packed days...but then it took three more days t
