Queens' Jumpers Finished
I completed the painting last evening. The Queen told me she wanted her crown to sparkle, and also those of her little flock. (They all demanded crowns too - being part of the Royal Estate). I covered each heart with glossy accents and allowed them to dry overnight. She's delighted.
The message the Queen discussed with me all through the painting process is to relax and enjoy life. It's short. Laugh much. Enjoy others company. Surround yourself with people who lift you up and let the rest go. Allow the Universe to assist you on the journey by asking for help. When it appears, act on it. Yes, have wonderful ideas, ask for help, and ALLOW them to evolve. There's that ALLOW word again. One day at a time. I thought everything she discussed with me was valuable and a good reminder of how I am trying to live my life.
May I introduce "The Queens' Jumpers", acrylic on canvas, 26" X 34", from the Studio of Donna Parker.
Hope it makes you smile. Thanks for dropping by. Always love seeing you here and reading your wonderful comments. Take care and have a great day.
