2017: A Slow Year
The year so far has been a very tough one, marred mainly by the sudden loss of my mother on May 1. My mother, Ellen, and I were extremely close before her death, and so it's taken a lot of grieving and hard work to get where I am now. Unfortunately, I've lost all desire to paint as a result and have finished only one piece this year. I pray that I will have a change of heart soon and want to take up the canvas again. You'll know I'm doing better when I start posting photos again...
