I promised my niece I would give her a painting for their new house.  We picked the size canvas and I began to work in fits and starts.  Then she sent me a text saying she would like to come by and see what I had done so far.  Yikes!  So, I got to work and guess what?  I found the joy in painting once more....finally.  I have been painting every day.  I'm working on something similar over an old canvas to the one for my niece.  I'm close to finished with theirs, but am having trouble with the foreground.  I will keep working.  I can even listed to Wicked Lies without thinking it's somehow my song.  

I'm excited about this.  I have found my purpose again and hope it stays with me.
