I hope you like my new paintings.....

hello dear friends......my husband and i are watching "Seraphine". It is an exquisite film about a wonderful artist, a poor woman who scrubbed floors and cooked for people but was inspired to create amazing paintings from visions. it is a fantastic film; i hope you will watch it. i posted these new (and old) paintings for you to see. the fist one my husband and i painted together. the others are mine. i love painting so much. i hope you like these. you can visit my Etsy shop to see more at http://www.sunflowerhouse.etsy.com/.

hi everyone, the weeks go by so fast. i keep trying to hold ever so tightly onto each spring day to somehow capture them and keep them beside me.....so they won't hurry away so fast, but the days swift by me so quickly as if they are running a race and leave me laughingly behind them. i should live in a culture and a place that has endless days of sun and warmth and masses amounts of flowers and greenery because winter puts a weight of terrible sadness upon me at times. it is beautiful in it's own stark, quiet way, but spring and summer are alive to me and my heart never tires of them......only delighting in each bright and beautiful moment like i were a little child again. sunshine, birds singing, the green of leaves in a tree so much huger and prolific than i......these things and all the hidden secrets of summer that lie behind each afternoon......pull me away from this ancient room where my soul screams and tires to leave from. oh that i would flee this place, to find the glorious and beautiful summer meadow where all is bright and shining and new.

i have had such a difficult week.....have been sick with a bad cold. my husband and i haven't gotten sick in such a long time, so it's been really rough but i'm getting through the worst of it. started a new job at a preschool and it is a lot of work. the children are so cute, though. i've added these new pictures of wonderful paintings, etc. for you to see; hope you'll visit the artist's sites. sorry i didn't include their links, just so tired. hope you're having a wonderful week. what a glorious time of year.....everywhere the trees are blooming with lovely new green leaves, the sun is out and it is so warm and nice and birds are singing. oh, if only it could be spring every day of the year, i would be so deleriously happy! i love the sun and all that it brings with it! just wish we had a yard so i could grow a garden again and have a pretty little orange cat. i keep praying for that kind of life.....away from the city, out of an apartment and into the country where i can enjoy nature again!! would love to hear from any of you who have started a garden or have a cat whom you love! we miss having a cat (can't have animals in our apartment!). have a beautiful day!
