Life's a party


Being happy is a great way to motivate yourself to paint. Today has been just a lovely Saturday, and once again I worked a bit in my studio, on a little painting having balance problems like
me -- getting it just right.

Josephine and Luigi came over and we played crib just the way we do in Nova Scotia with Ian and Marilyn, plus we ate supper on the back porch listening to the Salsa on St. Clair festival -- incredible music and loud enough for us to enjoy as background two blocks north.

A couple of weeks ago a friend asked me if I wanted to stop the dance theme, now that both my kids are finished with the prom scene. I don't think so. I love how people teenagers, adults, children look dressed up.

Here's Sam at the prom.

Dance the night away!
