lonesome strawberry



This is the best 2 inches of a piece I did a few weeks ago. The strawberries grew fuzz waiting for me to finish. I should just paint things that are already dead.

I almost forgot the playlist. What will become of my new hobby now that school's out?

Just stumbled onto your blog. If you're a new painter... I'll have to shoot myself.

I'm blushing like the strawberry now. (And I'm a little fuzzy too.)
I'll be visiting you as well, Marian. I enjoy your blog.

Love this strawberry. Maybe that's where the painting was all the time. You gaining momentum! Keep up the good work. And now that school's out, let's paint!

Okay, my pride won't allow me to let that one go. Where's the edit on blogger? "You are gaining momentum."

Now, that's better.

That's a way of reframing it, literally and figuratively.
You uplifted me today, Dianne. Thanks for checking in.

Dar - "best two inches of a painting" I can totally relate. SOmetimes I do a piece and there is one really good spot and the rest lags behind....do you suppose we will ever get it all right?
