Ladies In Waiting...

I've been a little busy with painting which is always a good thing.
I should slow down a bit and save my energy for September's 30
Paintings in 30 Days challenge. I always begin with so much gusto
and a few days in am either struck with a little creative block and/or
busy with the typical things in life that get in the way of painting, such as
working, cleaning house, running errands, cooking dinner, etc. etc...
How Dare the Necessities of Life Get in the Way of Painting! :)
However this year I am determined to begin strongly and end strongly.
So watch this space!
Here are 2 ladies waiting to be epoxied. 
I will try to get a picture once the process is done, but
the glare is often a problem.

There is such beauty and diversity in nature. And oh how beautifully it wraps its arms around the earth and asks for nothing. There for our enjoyment and to nourish.  Happy Monday. -r

A Painting’s Story.

Let’s look at the story of a painting.  I love nature. These days technology is an essential part of life. We’ve become so dependent upon it that some studies say 70% suffer from Nomophobia. Even new words have been created. We enjoy it and in some instances, NEED it. But, I still dream of my toes in thick grass. On my back facing the sky finding shapes in clouds. Listening to creatures “creature-ing”… Silence. The smell of chlorophyll. Nature’s damp and soft breezes. I try to tell that story in My paintings. After a day at the office, kick off your shoes, loosen your attire and if you can’t take a moment to sit and embrace nature, let a painting take you there.  Below are some progress pictures of the creation of Look, Ponder, and Pause. I could write a lot about it or just let the photos do their job.  Support the Arts wherever you are.  RachelJones RachelJones RachelJones RachelJones   RachelJones Find “ Look, Pause and Ponder ” at  Art Harbor Gallery .
