I confessed giving up painting on facebook

I put kind of a bummer of a post about how I haven’t painted in two years. I used to be a professional artist at one time. Anyways, we’ve been too broke for art supplies for a while now anyways but I really lost the will to paint anymore…then Angie’s sister asked me to paint her something. Her sister has been fighting cancer for a long time and is currently having a blockage in her intestines that she has to go through a procedure for any day. I had to say Yes. At first I thought “aw crap, I have to paint” but then I started thinking about it and a new hope blossomed out of it. She is paying for the supplies and she sent me a really cool tree photo with lots of birch trees and pine trees behind them with snow on them…should be pretty easy to do and I can’t wait to start painting.!

Isn’t that amazing??? I don’t believe how happy I am now…I doubt I will continue painting after I do the commission but maybe doing her photo will rub off.
