Art has been a solace for me through my life. It is a place I can go when everything around me is sadness and pain, where I can find healing and peace. Today's painting is titled Day Dreaming because when I paint, I can, if I'm lucky, achieve a kind of waking dream-like state, where I am immersed in the marks and the colors, the sweet faces of the animals I paint and the rich, juicy paint itself that is so satisfying to spread on my panel..
...and because this Bear is like a day dream, serenely sitting atop a giant cupcake in the sky...
Lastly, One of my favorite quotes about dreams...
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”
-Eleanor Roosevelt
