for my friend jaime... last night at her surprise 40th...she is the director of the pre-schoolers where we work and i, the director of the Kinder's - 8th graders...ergo, this light hearted portrait!
(secretly, i have been toying and painting whimsically all week...soooo fun)
Hi Wanda, This is a great painting . . . and how can I ever thank you for your wonderful comment - it has lifted me up when I needed it the most. Someday I hope to meet you in 'the flesh' thank you my friend!
Well of course.....you got me thinking and I was thinking of first grade and this time of year and second grade also. I remember a good friend I had from the first. Yet, in the spring she would always bring the teacher tis huge fist full of those beautiful Grape Hyacinth (Sp?) I thought they were so beautiful and had the bet scent. We didn't have those and they seemed very exotic to me. Now I want to write her and send her some art with them incorporated. Tell her the story as I don't think she knows how I felt.
It is such a gift you share with your art of whimsy to someone you think of with great fondness. It is so important to say all the good things we think of people and not keep them to ourselves. It makes both parties have brighter feelings and the urge to do good on someone else's behalf.
