A busy day, and thinking about my son

I love this very loose abstract sketch of my son, Sam. And I'm

thinking of him because he called when Steven and I were 

driving around shopping and doing errands.  He just wanted

to say Hi, and I was just going into a store, but as the day 
raced on it was too late to call by the time I was home and
had time. 

Sam is sweetheart of a guy, and since he and his wife left
Toronto we have really missed them.  They used to live
two blocks away, which was wonderful.

Here's what I said about this in a former blog:

"I have been lucky for my entire artistic life to have a super

supportive family.  This painting is of my son Sam who
posed for me many times during his late teens when he
was living at home, and a ready subject.  Christopher,
my son, my daughter-in-law Megan, Steven, my husband
and our various animals have all posed. And I am grateful
for them.  Big time."

Wishing you a happy and creative week.

Have a loving your life day.
