Stepping UP

Good Morning. I had a hard time getting up, as the dreams felt heavy. Without going into detail, they had something to do with stepping up to the plate and moving forward with my art. I will have to reflect on it and see what more I can do. What am I holding back?


The piece here is the 4th step of my LaCahapelle/ Pamela Anderson piece. Prior to tracing the image onto the canvas, I paint a base color to get me started. In this particular piece, I used a light grayish purple that will become the general tone to the inside of the egg. I finished the final piece last Saturday and I’m excited about finally revealing it next week.

Due to work, I have not had a chance to paint this week. I’m looking forward to doing some painting tomorrow. I’m thinking that I will work on my Dali and Frida pieces; they need a little love, a step forward.


Funny little thing, but whenever I have a choice between taking stairs and elevators/ escalators, I take the stairs to remind me that I can… still can and will.

As an old French Proverb says, “The first step binds one to the second.”


Cheers!
