Stranger

8/9” Mixed media on paper

Sorry, I haven’t been writing much lately. The world events are heavy, and I often retreat when things get messy. Painting provides a healing escape and helps me express feelings that I can’t always put into words. Each brushstroke takes me into a colorful world, where I find peace and inspiration to get through these difficult times. I hope you have that outlet too.

    Beautiful. Billy Joel’s, “The Stranger,” comes to mind.

        Animals make all the difference and then there’s paint for when the animals are asleep.

    I really like this.
    Way too heavy, but we can stand together and resist. (K)

      Thanks, K, we have to stand together, I know one day the nonsense will end, but many lives will be lost first.😔

    This painting seems to represent the mood of the present time.

    When I’ve had too much info about what’s going on out there, I go out to the garden and do some weeding or pruning. It helps.

    You look at the title and then the work and say, “Yes, I’ve got it.”

    What beautiful colors – it feels like a whirlwind to me but a beautiful one! One that takes a way from this harsh reality that we are living in right now. The world is a heavy place and it does the heart so good to just get away doing anything.

      Thank you, Joni, I know I am not alone in my feelings. Distraction and escaping, is the only way I can deal with it all! 😉

        No of course you are not. I have taken up doing puzzles and playing video games with my husband. Most days it is difficult to write. ❤️🤗❤️
