On the way home from my sister's wedding in August, my husband and I were driving through incredibly beautiful areas of the US. We drove past HUGE fields of sunflowers, saw rainbows, saw rainstorms from a distance, and lots of windmills in the middle of texas. My husband was asleep so I had time to think and stare at the landscape. I have always struggled with how to make art including all the things that inspire me. I've been wanting to pursue some "medical" art, if that makes sense...but also be able to express my faith in God. It dawned on me driving in the middle of New Mexico what I could do...ideas just started flowing and I had to make my husband drive so I could sketch them. I appreciate the body and the earth so much because of who created it. So combining these two concepts really appeals to me. I got started on a piece today, it's looking a little like camoflauge but it won't when it's finished.
I also took extra paint and returned to my old GIANT painting from my oil painting class. I've changed it some more and will continue to, it's an old friend I can't decide what to do with.
