:)

I was just painting and looking at my pallette full of dried paint and fresh paint.  I was looking at some of my paintings hanging on my wall...and I was struck with the feeling that I can create ANYTHING with these little wet blobs of paint!  ANYTHING I want....that is such an exciting thought!  hahaha  It just hit me that my imagination is the limit...how fun is that?!    :)

Some work in progress....

I thought you might enjoy seeing my work in progress.  I sketched out a little mermaid the other night.  You can see how I use tracing paper to make patterns for her tail and for the sea horse.  I will probably finish her today sometime.  I think I will do another with the same characters and make a set.  We'll see how that turns out.

Our Stories....

Heartwing Sisters

There is this woman, whom I so proudly call my friend.  Her name is Kolleen.  She has a way with words, this girl.  This is just one of her many gifts. She is caring and thoughtful.  She is creative and wise.  She has created a blog, and on this blog, each Friday, she shares truth.  She does this by simply asking some of the people in her life to share their "I'm Better For It" story.  She has shared her belief, that by sharing our truth with the world, we can heal and perhaps help someone else to heal.  She has given us a safe arena to share our stories, lighten our burdens, and celebrate our strengths.

I just finished reading April 8th 2011's "I'm Better For It" story.  A beautiful soul named Valerie tells of her truth and her awakening.  It is such a powerful story, in a very simple and beautiful way, that I just had to post about it.  It made me cry and it made me happy.  I hope you will read it also, and find healing in all the stories that Kolleen shares each Friday.

Thank you Valerie, and thank you Kolleen.  The truth is such a powerful thing.

A happy, Spring treasury....

My little Daisy Elegance made it into this lovely Etsy treasury!
