I lost my mother just over a year ago. To my surprise my desire to paint just stopped. I tried shortly after she passed away to paint a portrait of her but my hands would not let me. So I am trying again. That meant that I had to open my blog (which I hadn't done in a year) and get started. Wow things have changed with editing and so forth. Above is a painting I did of my mother a while back playing the guitar. My mother was an amazing woman. She never stopped learning or living life! The video is a little thing I put together for my family on the anniversary of her death. We all loved her so much! My mother was my biggest fan:) The last thing she would want is for me to stop painting. So with renewed strength I am going to start a new painting today. Wish me luck! The next one's for you Mom:)

Hey Anonymous is that you Linda? I don't know who wrote this comment but thank you. I love you too probably:)
I loved watching that video of your Mom. It made me cry it was perfect.
It was fun to see her the way she was when I was young. Sometimes when people get older, we sometimes forget what a full life they led before they reached that time in their lives.
Love, Joanne
