Last night I got the word that the scaffolding was taken down and this picture was sent showing the building in Tunkhannock -standing tall and proud - with all the love and dedication given to it in the past two months. The sunflower which is seen on the original cornice gave Carlos Penedos the idea to have me paint one with butterflies.Certainly it will add some life to a busy corner - brightening the days of many a passerby.
He said " I would like a painting of the spot were my future son-in-law proposed to my daughter to give them as a wedding present."The spot - familiar to many who have seen the paintings while in my studio immediately say "that's Rickett's Glen!" We're lucky to have such a beautiful spot - and what an idyllic place to say 'yes'!
It's started - I'm way up on scaffolding... Foreman Dave said " No flip flops tomorrow" hmmmm.... it's just nice to dangle my legs off the edge with no shoes on while painting.......
Keep your eyes PEELED nepa! Soon coming to a Wall Near You!!! I start tomorrow working on this beautiful sunflower with butterflies to boot - It's going to be big and in a prime spot... but.....nooone will see it --- till it's all done - finito!
Visualization, vision boards, and writing your dreams down are powerful tools for manifestation. A couple years ago I did a study for a mural never actualized which illustrates the nine wolf rules from Clarissa Pinkola Estes book 'Women who Run with Wolves". The rules tell how to regain or maintain a sense of balance and are as follows: Eat, Rest, Rove in Between, Render Loyalty, Love the Children, Cavil in Moonlight, Tend to the Bones, Make Love, and Howl Often. If all goes well there is a chance the study may become a reality due to a good friend who now works in Santa Monica for a humanitarian agency wanting a mural to support their vision. We'll see - it's in writing as to what I want .... oh, and the Universe likes speed!
