Looking back looking forward

I painted most of the day on a painting that is complicated, and is taking
quite a while to complete.  On top of that a lot is happening in so many
directions that I thought I'd look back at a piece I published on this day
14 years ago.  

I like the playful abstraction of the shadows in this. When I take my daily
walk, often at night, the shadows always captivate me. My husband Steven
likes to wave at me with his shadow, and I make a heart above my head back at
him.  The dark shadows of course are the result of street lights, or garage 
lights in the alleyways near us.

Wishing you a great weekend.

Have a loving your life day.
