The Giving Tree step stool



First done digitally ...how I saw it on the stool
and then the actual painting on the stool, I really
like the tree digitally and had more space to give it that giving leaning look than I did on the actual stool

Dreaming. A Distraction Painting

Dreaming. A Distraction Painting



A Distraction painting
As I looked around at the trees and the sweeping leaves.
everything was the giving tree
then I found myself due to deadline, pressure or just my life...
unable to paint, unable to paint what I saw in my mind.
after talking with a friend she encouraged me to paint in exercise
just sweeping strokes........this came from the sweeping
It is a painting of a dream I have had recurring in childhood
I fly over the trees and fields.there is no fear, even though I am afraid of heights
but I am not far from the ground either , just soaring over and looking down
I like to note also the orange healing energy coming out of the top of my head
not intended, but much of the things in my painting are not ;)
