{{ 65 }} Paint Time

Ooo La.  I got this sample of paint in the mail and can't wait to try it. I sometimes am just intrigued by the names of paint.
This is "Dried Mint".  Ordered another in the blue tones.
So generous of Valspar. Thanks you very much!!

{{ 31 }} Companion

I made this as the companion piece to Candace and Andrew's  anniversary gift. I had thought to keep it myself because I was having a difficult time. This was exactly one month before I gave up my desires and everything attached to them to submit to going to Israel as missionaries. It was a hard thing for me.

 {There's more to that story than I'll go into with this post.}

What I know: the process of creating a pure heart can be quite painful. It does not become "pure" without be worked over.

If it isn't pure, whose motives are behind the work?

Looking back I'm thankful He chose to work me over. 

{{ 28 }} Painting Pages

I am really painting these days. At the after Christmas sale at Hobby Lobby I bought

these little color packs. It gives me the chance to dabble in other colors.

I have a deep love for book pages and print. Just knew these would look 

"oh so cute".  I do like the way the paint absorbs into the old paper. Sharpies

do pretty good too. Posting a few projects in the days to come.

Projects are therapy for me....now what to do with them all?  LOL
