What Does It All Mean

Good Morning Karen,

I am so happy you enjoyed the post and that you went to my website and looked at my artwork.  I tried painting with oils when I was 18 or so and taking classes from a professor at Willamette University in Salem, Oregon.  I was scared to have anyone look at my art and he was not so kind, enough so that after the class ended I did not pick up a brush for about 20 years.  So much for some professors.  I love watercolors and have not really done anything in acrylics with the exception of some surreal pieces I did for my own home.  They are fun, nothing I would show.  The watercolors I have been doing of late are on canvas and come out looking very much like acrylics or oils especially because I am painting directly from the tube mostly.  A new direction for me for right now.  Thanks again for stopping and commenting.

Good Morning Anna,

I agree with you about finding the joy and happiness that we hold inside of ourselves.  I try to pull it out as much as I am able, sometimes it is not as easy as others, but when I do it is a wondrous thing. Thank you for commenting and stopping by.

Good Morning Bridget, 

If we listen quietly enough we can definitely hear the whisperings of Angels and the guidance they give to us.  I also struggle with the meaning of it all, some times more than other times.  It is the nature of one of the reasons we are here, the learning through whatever way we need to learn.  Thank you for stopping by and commenting.

Good Morning Mel,

Strength does come from within and it is always there when we need it.  There is nothing really that we do not already know we just have to find a way to access it.  Thank you so much for commenting, I always enjoys your blogs.  Have a great weekend.

Myrl,

You astound me !  You are right, so right and I get chills as I write this.  I am a Sagittarius (November 28) with a Leo Rising and a Taurus moon.  The only thing that halfway keeps me halfway grounded is the Taurus moon, as that is my emotional side and then with a Leo rising...well, it is quite a horoscope or so I am told.  Thank you so much for commenting.  I still have chills.

Hi Karen,

I have had the best time with the watercolors from the tube (not so watery LOL), and I only do that on the watercolor canvas, and if you want you can also be very watery on canvas.  It is basically so easy to change things when using the canvas, but you do need a light hand with the brush because the brush can certainly take off color if you do not and if you are trying to layer.  I like both paper and canvas but am in the stage now of preferring canvas. That will change I am sure because I get bored easily and like change.

Karen thank you for commenting again and for the compliments on my artwork.  I hope you have the best week.

Myrl, its good to know you.  Funny how we all connect in different ways, and at different times in our lives.  My oldest daughter is a Taurus, I am not sure what her rising sign is or her moon either.  Her Birthday is May 11, 1965 and she is surely a Taurus in the way of stubborn and stuck, but she always always has a plan and is of the kindest nature, you just cannot fool her.  She too is very earthbound, although has incredible gifts into the heavenly or celestial, and has the ethereal beauty of a Taurus.  Thank you so much for sharing part of yourself.

Good Morning Debb, I am so glad you read the post.  You are correct it did come from a deeper level and it is all the truth for me.  It is also a pleasure to get to know you, I love reading your posts which are revealing who you are as well.  I have put the Active Rain get-together on my calendar and I think you said you were going so meeting you in person will be a pleasure.  I just got my hair cut shorter yesterday so I look a little different than my photo, but we both know that I am not. 

Have a great day.

Mary
