Well, here she is at last... my hot babe on the beach... my bathing beauty... my cute little beach cherub. I do love children. To me they represent innocence, hope, potential, purity, meekness, and joy. I love to hold a child's hand, play with a child's feet, and answer every single "why" they can come up with. Painting them, apparently, is no different. I have thoroughly enjoyed every child I've painted. I may have to stick to this genre...
Playing with Tootsies
She's playing with her cute little tootsie. I love baby feet!
Standing Firm
I believe it is important to be kind to and serve others. I know there is much joy to be found when we let go of obsessing over our own petty problems and reach out to others. I have many opportunities to experience this joy and I treasure these moments.
At the same time, one cannot be selfless without a self. There are times when we must practice self-care and take responsibility for our own needs - mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. There are times when we must stand firm and say, "This time is mine. I need it."
