The proud artist at the gallery opening last night |
So - it's back to the basics for me this morning, which always helps me find my center again:
:: Waking up to a glorious sunset.
:: Being quiet.
:: Sitting on the back porch with bare feet, it's so warm.
:: A cup of hot tea in my hand.
:: Blogging a little.
:: Closing my eyes and listening to the incredible bird concert - I think every bird in the neighborhood has something to say this morning.
:: Looking up into the tree tops and getting lost in the patterns of branches and leaves.
:: Hearing the cooing of the doves, which always reminds me of carefree summer days of my childhood.
:: Planning a trip to Michael's this morning for some supplies for the last print for my class.
:: Listening to the wind rustle the trees, the neighbor's dog barking, the crows cawing.
:: Enjoying the calm before the storms that are surely heading our way this afternoon.
On this Saturday morning, I wish you a peace- and joyful day!
You look great standing next to your artwork. Pretty exciting! Can you believe how much your art has grown and changed in the past six months?
ReplyDeleteLifes to short not to take the time to center oneself from time to time...that's what I'll be doing today as well.:) Enjoy your day.

Thank you, everyone!!
ReplyDeleteI had a great day yesterday with a fun outing to Michaels and then a quiet afternoon while the storms rolled in. It rained all afternoon and all night and this morning the world looks fresh and clean!
I had a couple of comments here and on FB about the shirt I was wearing - that made me laugh because i was probably the only artist there not being dressed completely in black! I felt slightly unsophisticated ... and happy!! I love color. What can I say?!
WIshing you all a beautiful Sunday! xoxo Silke
Pretty boring of the others to wear black - you look great and so happy in your role.
ReplyDeleteCongradulations Silke, your art looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteHi Sike, das ist ein tolles Bild! Wahnsinn! Glückwunsch!
