I am participating in a program called 30 Days Of Awesome. It is a guide for how to live a full life and how to find balance in your life. Each day there is a task to accomplish. Sometimes it is related to running a business and often it is about taking care of yourself and others.
For example one task this week was to do something for somebody else. The next day switched things up with thinking about and working on some long term goals. Which brings me to the title of the post. I am calling it Dreams Of Flying because these 30 days have got me thinking about painting bigger...much bigger and to contemplate deeply both why and what I paint. What I have learned so far: I have a saying , the syntax is wrong but the meaning is clear. It is, "Where ever you go there you is." This is true for me as an artist and as a human being. I plan to paint my home interiors using the principals of color, shape, value and form. I will be painting larger in format and sometimes a peony or a rose will make an appearance because that is my brain using its "magical thinking ability" and that is how we fly.

You are a wise woman, Jo! I commend you. It will be exciting to see the developments on your interior walls. Wall-sized peonies? 😍
