Painting is my passion. Landscapes. Flowers. Women. Anything! One time an artist told me I needed to "focus" and get a set look to my art. I pictured the artist who paints birch trees over and over and over again. I held up my hand stop-style and told him it's not going to happen. No one can fence me in. I didn't start painting until I was 30 years old so I don't have any time to waste painting according to someone else's wishes. I explore each time I pick up a brush or palette knife. I go to sleep at night seeing wonderful colors dancing behind my eyelids. My husband is jealous. When he closes his eyes he just sees black.My thought for today: Be true to your inner self. Listen to the voice inside that tells you who you are. Create with joy as you listen to your inner voice. Trust your instincts. God gave us each a discerning spirit to know what is true and what is false. Don't let anyone else tell you to paint (or live) between the lines. Explore. Grow. Live! God has great plans for your life and has given you great gifts. Enjoy them and share them with others.
