Starting Over


If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavours to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

Ralph Waldo Emerson


After a long and tedious relocation and an unsatisfactory attempt at moving into a shared studio I have finally set up shop at home again. My first day back at the easel after way too long was spent putting some final touches on this painting which I had already posted on my web site. It is amazing how things can look so different after a long absence. I am much happier with this painting now and plan to set it aside for six months and then give it a coat of varnish. It was oh so lovely to be back with my brushes and paints!
