This is a painting I did for myself called "Sorrow". I have had this sketched on paper for probably a year and have finally painted it. I painted this lovely lady to be sad for me. There is so much tragedy and sadness in the world that sometimes I feel guilty for having fun knowing that someone somewhere is suffering. So this is my little lady that can pray and be sad for me all day and night while I carry on.
And carry on we did....
We spent the day at a large mall North of St. Louis. This mall has a small indoor playground , ice skating rink, and fun fair type rides. The kids drove some mini go carts. Rose was NOT a good driver. It scared me to death.
She is my wild child. This is her jumping on the super web like spider man. Here she is attempting to do a flip on it. scary. I did paint a few more paintings this week. I am just not sure what I am going to do with them yet. :/ They are different. I have one that I plan to put up tonight if I have time. If I do I will post it here too.
Hope you all had an interesting weekend.

Oh, I love your "sorrow" painting. We must both be feeling a little melancholy this week. I am posting another one today of a girl looking longingly out the the window.
Oh so sad!- the painting. Oh so scary seeing Rosalie up in the air! Geez!
This picture is so sad...so I'm sad in this day...
Good evening.

She's got a heart for acrobats! I can feel your fear while she is enjoying herself without fear!
Thank you so much for the care thoughts behind your painting! I can feel like she is praying for me and it comforts me.
Don't feel guilty for enjoying your healthy time together. This is what you are here to do! I am so pleased to know you are enjoying yourself with your family, it is fantastic news and cheers my soul to see such happy photo's! Your go girl!
I think it is a perfect idea. There's so much meanness in this world. I sometimes think my dog Otto does this for me. He worries about everything so I don't have to.
i love your sorrow painting... it's been a sad last couple months for my family and your message is so true...so much saddness in this world... u gave me an idea for my next painting...thanks for the inspiration. xox
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME.....love it!
this painting moves me. and your thoughts about sadness do too. right now is not your "sorrow" time and how wonderful to enjoy with your kids. thanks for sharing.
Even though the painting is sad it is really cool.
Looked like you guys had a lot of fun!
Love the painting. That is awesome that Rose is not scared. I bet you were enough for both of you. I was not as adventurous as a youngster....and still am not. No bungy jumping for me...ever!!!
