Description
Summer is a time for relaxing and enjoying the sun and water on lazy days. Well sometimes life doesn’t lend its way to that ideal, but with our god-given imagination, we can go anywhere, like sailing on the sound around Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands on a perfect day. Here is a little palette knife painting painted in my last hour of July to keep with my New Year’s resolution to paint at least one a month. I have found that the freest and most passionate works turn out the best, especially with a palette knife. Maybe I should paint the last day of the month always!
Thinking about goals and how they motivate. They give something to work towards and fulfill just because something within is driving us, our intuitive conscience knows. When we follow through with these promptings the reward felt is truly wonderful.
