The son shines brighter than the sun. 8 x 11
It is chilly... I have read studies it's better to sleep in the cold, many prefer it cold, it's easier to 'layer off heat control, but when it's cool here - it get's you moving a little faster when up. There's snowing the forecast and a cool -23 so no wonder I'm painting warmer images. The warmth from this image comes from Jesus and not glitter gouache.
on the path that we will be walking in a few months... I remind myself & the girls.
The past few days have been beautiful sunshine but it's a bit of an illusion when you step into it. If it's that cold on my fingers, it's that cold on Poppy's tiny belly & paws, no lingering. It appears (on social media) people are expecting big thing when Trump takes over, instantly. He's been promising a few things, instantly... it should be interesting to watch but probably more enjoyable & less stressful to paint. Jo Rogan was mentioning the current situation in LA and it sounds like a movie, brutal. He pointed out, even those who's homes were spared - are finished as there is nothing around them, property value drops, looting in the area. & they can't claim insurance as their house was not destroyed in the actual fires. The bible reminds us pray for strength & courage, for others if not for ourselves. If there was ever a time to pray for Peace, now is good.
On my desk are 3 different style cards', just for fun. Each is a bit of work so I'll be sending them out for special occasions to special friends. Below is a recent pup portrait! I love painting our fury families, card size make it a perfect tiny gift too.
