         It’s that time of year when we join family and good friends to celebrate a feast and to remember what we are thankful for. I am so thankful for my two wonderful children who I will be seeing soon, my partner, my distant family, and all of my good friends. They all make my life immeasurably happier for their presence.
                                                     Happy Thanksgiving!

            This is the companion painting to last week’s apple painting. I photographed these apples on a railing up in the mountains with a gorgeous southern sugar maple tree behind them. These trees turn bright yellow in the fall and this beautiful tree inspired me to paint the apples with a backdrop of a warm, cheerful, golden sky.  

           Happy Weekend!

Finding Comfort

I’m finding comfort lately in focusing on the things that have not changed since the election on  Tuesday. I still have my wonderful family and friends, my students who give me hope every day that our future will be bright when they’re in charge, and the signs of fall all around me. We found these colorful apples on our way up to the north Georgia mountains and I couldn’t wait to paint them!
May you find comfort this weekend in the company of good friends and family, and in the delightful colors of autumn!

            Ever since I was a child I listened to the trees sing. Each tree sounded its different notes as the wind blew through its leaves. I would hide myself away deep within a grove of trees or climb high up upon the branches until I found the perfect perch. Ahhh, the joys of childhood, gorgeous views from on high with the music of nature in my ears.
            Happy Weekend!
