laundry holds light!

Laundry always attracts me to draw and paint its lovely folds and shadows. Translucent light emanates hope I am unsure if this is complete.

Part of me loves that state of beauty "in process"!

Painting the hours of the day...

I am continuing my exploration of daily hours, by observing the light on objects and places that I inhabit.I find patterns in the images themselves and then again in my repeated actions and routines. I document the hours, based on the times of the day remembered with prayers in monasteries, to find meaning and express gratefulness for the richness of my life. 

The more I observe the moment that I am currently in, the richer and multi- layered my painting sketches become.

I see things I never took the time to notice before. Does this occur in your life and if so, how do you create the space to see more?

Because of this attention to the sacredness of each moment, I love to visit the site Gratefulness.

Taking notice of flowers...

watercolor sketch

Today, I noticed these sunflowers, the way they catch the light and how they embrace the space on my table. I made a little watercolor, 7" x 5". Sometimes the most ordinary elements in my life say al lot to me about light, space and time. In fact, they change every day, and how i see them changes, too. I will keep track of them as they react to the light, space and time.
