 Painting with Seniors..
Nothing like having a collective show to work towards... To keep the chatter away And laser-like focus to hone in one's vision For a masterpiece to come! 😆

 Painting outside in November..
Passes by this park quite often And this time, there was a parking spot available.. Finally, everything lined up for this opportunity Warm clothes, mitts, paints and easel and time all available Just had to haul myself out of the car.. I just love gazebos, don't you? Think I've asked you that before... lol HAVE A SASSY SATURDAY, dear friends! xoxo  Our friend, Rachel passed away peacefully yesterday evening..
So glad I called her a couple of weeks ago.. We chatted for nearly 2 hours I usually am in denial And always hopeful that people will get better But this time, I wanted to make sure I said whatever I wanted to say, expressed love and gratitude to her before the time came.. Texted her a few evenings ago.. No reply for a couple of days And then " Love you.." She is not known for being brief in her words So, I knew she was tired I texted her back " I am so happy to hear back from you!" Again, somewhat hopeful.. Alas..that text remains unopened.... Thank you for being the presence you were.. For the tea parties where you served your wicked, delectable cakes The secret blueberries patches you shared with me The stories you regaled me of your hunting days And always the kind words of encouragement and support for my artwork.. I am just one more of those who love you too... RIP, dear Rachel.. <3 CARRY ON LIVING YOUR LIVES WITH ZEST, dear friends! xoxo  Life Painting
Oil on 18"x24" paper... Model extraordinaire: Abra Bergen  Laura picked up yoga 4 years ago
And is now an instructor herself.. With 12-14 other instructors in one studio Offering all kinds of yoga From hatha, vinyasa to restorative.. I marvel that she's quite a new yogi But already sharing with the world what she so loves... Namaste  I liked this particular angle of the gazebo
Which meant standing nearby to a fairly busy road intersection I got a few passing cars' feedbacks on my painting.. lol One lady yelled out to me for a card Which I had to rush to her before the lights changed... Sorry I didn't get your name And Thank You for your lovely smile... ^_^ So much for a quiet day under the shade in the park I loved and felt blessed with all the interactions I had.. ^_^ ENJOY A HEARTFUL DAY ON THIS SUNDAY, dear firends!! xoxo  SOLD
Acrylic on 24"x36" I still love that song.. you know the one I mean.. " I like to be under the sea..... ------------ We would be warm below the storm In our little hideaway beneath the waves Resting our head on the sea bed ------------ We would shout and swim about The coral that lies beneath the waves Oh what joy for every girl and boy Knowing they're happy and they're safe..." Oh oh.. now I can't get this song out of my head! lol 'ENJOY A SWIMMINGLY, BEAUTIFUL TUESDAY, dear friends! xoxo  Painting Muskoka Chairs as part of Bronte BIA's initiative
