let your light shine in 2012 for someone else to follow. we all need encouragement.

my heavenly daddy gave me two roses in december and a daffodil.  how amazing are you Lord!!

Truth Shadow

i find great joyin playing with shadows and my painted backgrounds thanks to natasha, my writing coach.

son graudation VCU

of course he had to make a statement by

wearing his sunglasses during his walk.

Wild Shadows

sunsets come in all shades and colors.

Sunset Shadows

across the sundial the royal shadow flickers.
hawaiian pink and purple shadows peep
 out from the rushing waves.
nearby roots so shallow lay over.
wispy mauve shadows watching guard
as a lean ash-violet shadow remains silent
in the gentle breath of night.

purple passionate shadows tease one another in delight.
a lone periwinkle companion shadow trails behind
the gothic deep-orchid caped shadow.
good night wild-thistle shadow
buried beneath the fading sunset.
good night wild-thistle shadow
until the break-of-day shadow appears.
good night.

More Green

i'm really enjoying painting tropical, who said water has to be blue or sky blue. it's called

 Creation By Imaginationand i really love it.

taking the pic i played with my hand shadow to create the effect of 'being created'.
