Dear Arts,
Today, I did battle with the wild rose bushes winding around the evergreens in our yard. I wasn't aware I had so many aggressions to get rid of.
At times, I was held prisoner by branches of thorns stuck in my hair, my pants, my jacket. When it comes to that kind of gardening, I turn into an animal. Tonight, I have the cuts and slashes to prove it.
Since this yard is new to us, I planted as many bulbs as I could, but it's great to see some surprises popping up, that were planted by previous renters.
I was exhausted after an hour, so I returned to making a picture and price list for the Rhode Island gallery owner to select from. I kept my favorites for the local Essex gallery because I will be there more, and my clients and friends can see my work.
I am back to pure seaweed, as it goes together so well for me.
I intend to paint in my spare time (If I can find any) I love acrylics, and sometimes watercolors. I haven't tried oil painting yet. It seems difficult and smelly and permanently messy, although I see knockout oil paintings everywhere.
I have to do my color class homework for Monday. I love the feeling of being a student.
Happy Easter, or Sunday, or Springtime,
Lisabeth
