I am glad I paint because it gives me the strength to continue. That sounds so clique to my ears, but once the experience is over the reality of peace sets in. I worked on a watercolor portrait tonight that was started weeks ago in our Life Study at the BCAC (Broome County Arts Council). The piece was bold in color, bold in strokes with energy to boot. Too much energy. I wanted to tame it but not lose the energy. I believe I achieved my balance.
