I finally decided to tackle another painting. It has been months since any inspiration has filtered through. It was the shadows that attracted my eye and I decided to pick up a paint brush again.
There is truth in the saying "Use it or lose it!"
On Tuesdays and Fridays I drive to Joy of Coffee in Murrayville for morning coffee. There is a regular gaggle of mostly men who meet there every morning. I usually sit on the periphery and absorb their discussions but sometimes I allow myself to get sucked into the topic of the day. Gerry always hands me a copy of the Province when I walk in. Lisa and I exchange greetings and she gives me progress reports on the plants in her nursery greenhouses. Brooke, the server, shares updates on brunch locations that she has visited recently. Ron, the owner, talks about his upcoming cruise with the group. Every time I walk through the door I feel welcomed.
