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!

Harvest
 |
|
|
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!

Hear the Woods Sing
 |
|
|
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!
