Driving in circles
Driving in the countryside is my new obsession. That and the Saturday morning farmers markets in Eau Claire, WI.
What is beautiful to you? I love seeing the morning light. In my head for the last few weeks, I keep hearing the Beatles sing 'Here comes the sun!'. Then Army Strong (my husband and artistic support person) and I pack up everything and head out. Camera and coffee, we have been seeing all the sights -- or the sites (whichever way works).
I do wish that the fall colors could be persuaded to stick around, but (as always), they're gone too soon. The last summer farmers market was today. We found our favorite food vendors and took more pictures.
A long time ago, I asked God to show me the beauty in my life. See, I had been in a low spot for a very long time. Nothing was joyous. Everything felt grey. Then, He answered my prayer by showing me how I was surrounded by beauty -- and I'm still seeing it every day.
I know my paintings have been coming a bit slower. :) I'm working on a big commission right now. I'm looking forward to perhaps seeing you at the holiday show in November or perhaps my January show.
