Painting #13 Like a Rock

Inspiration for creativity comes in many forms; sometimes it is something tangible, like a rock that was a gift to me from someone close to my heart. I am inspired as much, if not more so, by the thought of the sentimental act they performed , as I am by reading the words inscribed.

Those that touch our hearts deeply, continually renew our spirit each time we visit that memory. Today I went down memory lane and chose  items that will be showing up in paintings later this month. Just one way I can honor those that honored me....

You are almost halfway there! Love seeing your daily paintings. This is my favorite so far. Can't resist brushes.

So glad you like it. I think I could add a few darks now. I am putting the rock in another set up as I want to study the tones more.
