COMMANDO WATERCOLOR
"Get in and get out"

Inspiration - where does it come from - 

Yesterday I spent time with a painting friend who is dying of cancer soon....and yet her eyes are still  brillant with the wonder of living and the joy to be had in each moment.  She shared her outlook with me, writing on a white board since she no longer has the ability to speak.  Let me share with you:

Leave nothing undone
Leave nothing unspoken
Go to bed knowing that you have lived life to the fullest today



Patricia is an inspiration

- a gal who came to painting classes although she couldn't speak
- a gal who tried everything that she could envision in the painting world
- a gal whose paintings spring with life and vitality and imagination
- a gal who is gutsy and laughs readily
- a gal who sees the funny side of life amidst the troubling side of things
- a gal who crochets blankets for the homeless
- a gal who inspires

Patricia is an inspiration!!!

Thank you, Patricia, for inspiring me and so many others
Like a crocus in the spring, your life will inspire forever!
