Think Ink!

Think Ink!

I am slowly browsing through paintings I have made in the last couple of years, but did very little with, and some how that makes me sad. Just sitting there in a big black folder.  I hope I am not boring any one with adding one illustration after the other on my blog.  I have so very much to say, that I just don't know where to start. Or should I say, I wouldn't know where to finish?

So I am adding pictures instead. Because they make me smile. There has not been much to smile about for over a year, but I think it is pointless to hammer on about what is not right. I rather be 'thinking ink'
Thanks for your understanding

  3. I just stumbled across your blog from Lori's...first off, I'm not sure what you've been through but I can feel a deep sadness - my heart goes out to you. I lost my father 4 months ago to an 8 month battle of cancer and it's been hard regaining ground, so to speak. Anyway, I know you don't know me, but I'm lifting you up from here.

    Your artwork is lovely and incredibly inspiring. I just might get my paint brush back out. Haven't painted anything significant in weeks now, just doodling.

    Big hugs

  5. Your illustrations are so beautiful and so inspiring, it's one of my little routines to check on your blog each day and to see a new painting makes me smile. Life can be tough and sometimes we just don't know the answers and it takes time to work things through. Enjoy your painting and know there are people out here who don't necessarily know you, but are sending their love and positive thoughts to you. Take care x

  13. Your illustrations are wonderful as ever. Such a deepness and beauty. The people you paint never laugh. And always have this sad and melancholic eyes. It goes directly to the heart.

  21. Yes, it's great to paint, but also to hang them up and show them. A blog is such a great place for it. You could turn them into postcards and send them out to friends for framing. :-)
