So it has now been right at a year since I was doing any regular painting. Aunt Carla went home a year ago this past Monday, and i guess after being finished with painting and praying every day i needed to take some time off and sort of fill myself up again. It's hard to pour anything from an empty cup. I'm excited to say that i'm really looking forward to this next yers worth of painting. I feel like God is going to be opening up some new doors. Without my doing anything, He already seems to have started drawing my attention back toward painting. In the last month i've sold 1 painting, been commissioned to do 2 works, been able to donate 2 paintings to worthy causes and had some other interesting artistic opportunities present themselves. Praise God! I honestly don't think it's a coincidence that all this is happening exactly one year after Aunt Carla's life celebration. I tell you what Christ created a ripple in her life and she allowed it to continue into others, a worthy vessel is the words that come to mind. I pray that i can do all i can to do the same. Lord, help me to be more like you!
