Because of the horrific tragedy in Connecticut I found it very difficult to paint!
Late that night I forced myself to paint something. I found this "Dancer" I started a little more than a year ago and thought I would give her a "twirl!" I am still very sad but I am glad I painted. I hope somebody "out there" likes it!

She is a celebration of life, elegance, joy - when we need it most. Thank you. I am glad you painted, too.
ReplyDeleteSusan,

I thought of your wonderful "Ballerinas" while I was painting! Nice inspiration!
Take care.
Thanks again.

Thank you Mary! Art is healing. Slowly. Last few days I have been painting some whimsical pieces. I will post soon. Trying to move on.

Nice sense of movement in this!
ReplyDeleteMichael, having also been a teacher for 32 years, the tragedy in CT has really hit me hard. I just can't imagine what was going through the minds of the teachers or those precious little children. My heart breaks for their families.
Hi Joan!
DeleteI am so glad to find out you were a teacher!
This tragedy certainly affected educators! You hang in there and keep making great art.
It is still very sad.
Thanks for dropping by and sharing so much.
