During these challenging times, sometimes it is good to just sit back, relax and put it all in God's hands.  Take time to listen....He may have some new plans for your life.  Peace.

Time to Color the Eggs

watercolor

I will  always remember coloring Easter Eggs when we were kids.  We made those marble ones.  My mom had us color between noon and 3 pm on Good Friday.  She told us we shouldn't talk because that is the time of day Christ died for us.   I think she did that so us kids wouldn't fight.  We probably did anyways...hey, we were kids.  Then we would go to Good Friday church service and had to be quiet there. 

This year no one is going to any church services this Passover and Easter....hope this will all pass, too.

In Remembrance of Him

"He came to save us," He will do it again.  This, too, shall pass.  

This is a painting that I did of my church Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Hammond, Indiana.  We have been members since 1976.  

Good Friday, feast day.  

Water Reflections

One of my students wanted to learn how to do reflections in the water...so I did this painting.  I also made one of my painting packets of this painting with step-by-step instructions.  If you are tired of being  locked in,  you can paint at home with my step-by-step packets.  E-mail me.

Take it easel....Kathy

Getting a bit dark and dramatic here...Maybe it is because of the times of uncertainty that we are going through right now....To me, I look at this as a peaceful painting.  As I paint during these times....this is exactly how I feel....Peaceful and Calm.  "This, too, shall pass".

Railroad Structure

I love seeing this structure through the years and I decided to paint it.  Looks like some kind of grain mill.  It's a local building here in Indiana.

Memories of a Winter's Day

I have to keep counting my blessings to make it through all that we are faced with right now.  I am happy to be an artist because I always love staying home and creating.  I am doing so much of that right now.  I'm also sanitizing everything and then treating myself to painting time.  I am also cooking and baking more.  We have to try our best to make it through this.  We may all be a few pounds heavier, but that will come off quickly.  I just wish it would warm up and the sun would come out so that we can all go out into the garden.  It is nice to see families taking walks together.  Stay well, wash your hands.  This, too, shall pass. Peace.
