Super day today.  Meeting with neighbourhood friends this morning,
then a busy afternoon.  So I was really happy tonight to get back to
my art group for a fast one hour.  My husband Steven drops me off
at 7:30, and picks me up at 8:30.  Clearly I don't have a lot of time
to work, as setting up takes me about 10 minutes, and tonight my
first easel was a disaster.  Then there's cleaning up and packing up
 -- so another 10 minutes, and there were two 10 minute breaks for
the model. I probably got this much done in 25 - 30 minutes. It was
so much fun. There are so many amazing artists in that Don Valley
Art Club group. 

The best thing about the group, is that I just paint and don't think.  This
week the model was great. I needed more time, and I like what I
made.

Have a loving your life day.
