Keep Believing

This past week or two has been full of mixed emotions--yin and yang moments that have really pulled at my heart. For the past eight years I have been home raising my two little boys. In two days they will both be in school full time and it is really hard to reimagine my days.

I do look forward to more painting time, among other things, and thought I'd start out with some color play on these fun dandelion pieces. (Visit my website to see the others.) I shared this particular one on my Facebook art page yesterday and one man wrote, "Great colors, but they're just dandelions." I shared the comment with my husband and he was disappointed, but for that man and probably many others I guess it's true. They are just dandelions!! But for others, I guess some like to focus on the feelings or the memories associated with this particular image.

New Discovery!

Nothing is as exciting as trying and loving something new. This was my absolute first time using this technique, and I am excited to experiment more and see what I can come up with.
