Soon, I found myself getting my paints out, sorting them into the colours I required. Before I knew it I was seated before her. OK, I thought. The tree would be a good place to start. And so it began. I spent the better part of the day with brush in hand, playing. Her roots are in ancient Ireland. A Celt. A woman. A healer. She has 'wisdom'. Deep knowings of the mystical kind. As she told me when I sketched her in the first day. "Love is the greatest healer."
Had great difficulty getting a good photograph. Not sure why, however the colour, texture and clarity is the pitts. :o) |
And so, I have begun.
Thanks for dropping in everyone. xxoo Donna

Oh, I am so glad she came to you and you have done a great job of capturing her...she has soul and wisdom. It is amazing who lives within us. I have trouble with colours when I post as well. I am upset...I broke my camera the other day...boo hoo. Happiness and creating to you love r'rose
Donna She just flows. Love it.
This is GORGEOUS, Donna!
Gorgeous and her love will speed up your recovery. I like the tree you included because it reflects strength.
Isn't it ironic when we plan our day and end up doing something entirely different as though we were directed in some way to please the soul.
Have a good weekend. Tonight is another Boise football game so my evening will be spent in front of the TV.
Hugs,
Carolyn
The shading for the tree is perfection. No wonder she invited you to look at the tree!
I also love the tree background a lot....just gorgeous. So happy that she came to you and your muse is back. Wishing you more healing thoughts.
Another beauty!
