Day 22: Mother's Day Flowers

These flowers go out to my four wonderful and amazing mothers, Mom (Barbara), Step-Mom (Sue), Mother-In-Law (Alice) and Step-Mother-In-Law (Lori).  I am so blessed.

Its a hard job, but today I am pampered.  I went for a beautiful run, stopped in the Coffee Bean to see my oldest daughter, and she made me a coffee.  Now I am home getting yummy smells wafting upstairs while my hubby and younger daughter are busy creating a fabulous breakfast.  Later we all will meet my brother at Runyon Canyon for a hike in the Hollywood Hills.  Perfect day.

Love honestly.

Day 10: Circles

I did this on the airplane. Return trip from Chicago OHare to LAX. ( I LOVE Virgin America Airline! Love that purple lighting in the cabin.  Love the employees' sense of humor. Love the individual TVs on the back of each seat.  Love the direct flights.  Love that the planes are new enough to have "Turn Off All Electronics" light right next to the "Fasten Seatbelts" light)

I got caught up watching "Forrest Gump" while on the plane, and one of my contacts had fallen out, so drawing was just not happening.  I don't feel like this one is completed - I will continue to work on it and repost the finished drawing.

Day 47: Raw Sienna

I spent nine hours at LA County History Day in Azusa, CA, because younger daughter did a great project on "Roe v. Wade".  It was a long but exciting day.  I did this drawing as I was spending those many hours.  I was inspired by someone's "Whole Foods" bag with healthy  hearts.

I was feeling the love today.  Met some new people that I spent many many many hours with.  I am constantly amazed by people.  I tend to judge people by their looks, how they present themselves to the world.  I believe many people judge others by their looks, but most won't cop to that.  I hate admitting that out loud, but that is what this blog is all about - being honest and saying things out to the world that may reveal the secret that I am not perfect.  Oh no, the truth is out, I have flaws! Anyhow, I was saying that I am often surprised by who people really are and what struggles have brought them to where/who they are today.

Day 13: White

Today was a very hard day. I felt very disappointed by someone that I love and trust.  I feel sad, angry, depleted and other feelings that don't have a name. I felt the opposite of yesterday's multicolored.  Today I am colorless.  I know that this too will pass, but for today, I need to respect my depleted, colorlessness.  I was really looking forward to "White" day, and I feel that I sort of wasted it, but today needed to be white on black paper.

With little energy, the image is very simple.  And that is all I have to say about that.
