I am creating this blog entry from up state New York.
I am here visiting with our son, Ryan. It is beautiful here and we have enjoyed exploring areas around the small towns were he lives. I have taken an overload of photo references that will be used for panting subjects and lessons for my eager students.
My son is a musician so as I am sitting drawing and painting, I get to listen to him on the guitar playing his original music. What a great feeling of pride in him and inspiration. A verse in one of his songs is "All signs point to YES." What a wonderful line! I think it speaks to me in a very personal way - finding the positive, looking for ideas and inspirations everywhere, being thankful for all the lucky things that come my way.
