Women and Hope

Good Afternoon.  This small watercolor represents to me the hope all women carry in their arms all the time. Hope for the children, the world, the country, the peacemakers, a cure for cancer, a happy outcome, peace, etc.  I hope it inspires you to carry hope in your arms, whether or not you are a woman.

Thanks for tuning in.

Navy Kiss

Good morning. This pastel painting was inspired by a newspaper article covering a homecoming of a Navy ship. Even though it was years ago and my husband was in the Air Force, I vividly recall his homecomings. The excited crowds filled with spouses, children, girlfriends, boyfriends, parents, etc. would surge forward like a tidal wave at the first glimpse of a uniform. And, at least once, my husband grabbed me up off my feet and twirled me around. Romance hung in the air. I wish for this couple continued romance.
