watercoloring the day away...

I forgot how much I enjoy painting. It brings such a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment to me. I am reminded yet again of the blessing which art is. God graciously gave me something which I can truly love and take pleasure in. What an incredible blessing it is to be able to do something well. I feel considerably productive when painting and drawing. Art is one of those things which is not needed at all for survival. Without it though, the world would be so different, so strange... Art is only a feeble attempt on our parts to capture the amazing wonders of creation. Our workmanship will never, and could never equal that of the Creator. Yet it is a joy to be able to create something beautiful. No matter how small or insignificant it might be to others.
