Home is Where the Joy Is


This was one of those glorious, wonderful, calm and peaceful weekends we get so few of around here. We hadn't overwhelmed ourselves with "to-do" lists, we didn't have too many scheduled activities, we just enjoyed the natural flow of things and had a great time!

A trip to the farmer's market always has a way of starting the weekend out well, and so do things like sleeping in a bit, taking a family bike ride through the neighborhood, playing in the park, and eating fresh sweet cherries.

I thought that this new little encaustic painting really summed up my happy thoughts of home. Hopefully, I can remember this sweet respite of calm peace during this increasingly busy week to come. I think everything would go much smoother if we all carried a bit of "home" in our hearts, so that is my goal this week!

this is a lovely image...I found you through my friend Kane Ikeda, a fine artist too. Will look at more of your work, but so far I like what I have seen.
