A paint day, and a pansy painting

Today was a super day, even though I broke a tooth last
night, and had to go to the emergency dentist. (The dentist
was great by the way -- kind, gentle, funny. Multiple
masked and also good at the job.) (As a former dental
assistant in high school, I am very clear about what's
good work.)

But the main thing is that I worked on a painting that
I've been making for the past six months on and off,
and I am almost done. Plus I talked to a super joyous
friend and laughed a lot, and even weeded the garden
a bit in between painting sessions.

I found this little pansy painting that I don't think I
showed you. I started it the minute pansies started
appearing in our previously flower free world, and
sending everyone's hearts into pure unmitigated joy.
And I did a bit more work on it tonight. So it was a 
paint all day day, and soon I'll show you the main
work.

Have a loving your life day.

  2. True Jennifer Rose,

    But actually it was a pleasant experience, and it solved a
    major gap in my existence. Not completely. That is a coupls
    of weeks down the line.

    Love your work.

    XOXOXOXOXOXO Barbara

  4. Hi Evelyn,

    Thank you so much! All will be revealed, and no it isn't pansies. I hope to finish this painting today if all goes well. I do love pansies, and love painting them.
