"A Child's Garden"
This has been a pretty lazy uneventful Thursday. My book is next to my on my computer desk and I believe it is whispering "read me, read me" Think I'll set this Dance out.
There is so much to love living here in Fortaleza, that I really don't go around kicking my cats because I don't have enough light to paint by. On the gray days I get to read. I can't really curl up in a white plastic arm chair, but I can put a pillow on the seat and one at my back, prop my feet on the bed and I'm set for hours of reading enjoyment. I've just begun "Killer Smile" by Lisa Scottoline. I'll share some paintings from my earlier life.
"Castles in the Sand"
My friend, Barb, has been obsessing over the face and partial body of a woman she discovered in the lights and darks of a floor tile in her bathroom! Like clouds in the sky, you look and then you look again and you see faces or animals. I used to commute over 100 miles to and from work, and finding faces in the clouds kept me awake and or dying of boredom. She drew the image and then transferred it to her watercolor paper. She had begun the painting and posted the process from the tile in the floor to the beginning of her painting. It's terrific! Go to http://www.barbarasailor@blogspot.com/
