On My Way

Lots of times when looking for something to paint, a story to tell, I end up with this composition.  For me, it's a metaphor for life-- a life well lived, well traveled, well delved into without knowing where the end is and not even caring but always knowing I can handle whatever is put before me.  This particular painting reminds me of the beautiful life I have had, the many wonderful relationships I have stopped to enjoy, the decisions I have made that were good ones.  There must be another painting in me showing the bad decisions I have made in my life but right now, today all I can see is this place...a smooth place to walk in my sandals and a hat to shade my face, prettiness and nature around me with love in my heart.
