(Tomorrow’s Sunrise, Pastel, 1999)
Even though my schedule has been totally full with working on taxes, cleaning a new house, and getting ready to move out of our current house in just a week, I still think about art all the time. What to paint next, what workshop I hope to take, what art events are coming up…. one thing I was thinking at 3 a.m. yesterday was about becoming a better artist. Not better than someone else, just better than I am today. I think the talents we are given are a gift to us from God and how we use them is a gift back to God.
What I was thinking at 3 a.m. was, that I want to become good enough as an artist, so that God might stick one of my pictures on His refrigerator.

Regina that has to be one of the most sincere and heart warming messages I have seen in a a long time. Keep on painting hun! I’m sure your painting will be hanging if not already

Thanks so much, Vanessa. Those 3 a.m. thoughts can come across as odd – but, as you said, sincere.
