Lighthearted, I take to the open road


Afoot and lighthearted I take to the open road, 
healthy, free, the world before me.
~Walt Whitman

I love the optimism of this. Things can be simple and full of possibility, 
if we decide upon our daily outlook.

This painting: I am still learning new fonts and today I tried a new one that came out nicely.  I have also been enjoying the mountain shape so much and playing with simple swaths of colour. Then, this month's Silkworm journal displayed many of these simple scenes and it gets me more and more excited to start my silk painting studio.  That will be my next big order- dyes, resist, silk and to build my own wood stretcher frame.

The world is before me!
