That creative zone of painting is far different than writing for me. I paint with my whole body (physically) and mentally, whereas, when I write, I feel "tighter", even when I write freehand.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by and I hope you become a regular. I look forward to returning here and have "vibe-marked" you.

I think I will do a series of these, since I seem more inspired to paint the trees in their winter state, more than I am inspired to photograph them.Catherine Viberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01354073276671196477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065576345622223007.post-38580992326822224842009-02-03T09:08:00.000-08:002009-02-03T09:08:00.000-08:00Cat! amazing painting...

Our health and happiness depends on it! Besides, there is a well deserved pride when you can hold a finished piece of labors of love in your hand.<BR/><BR/>Hi Calli, thank you for your kind words! And welcome to my site. I'll be over at your site exploring your work next. I hear through the grapevine that you are quite the artist, so I'm excited as to what I'm about to see!<BR/><BR/>S.L. I am probably more spiritual then I let on. I know this to be true from reading my journals. Although I do have a cynical cryptic face on occasion that could lead you to believe that I'm not, a good poet like you would see through that face. :-) Thank you my friend. <BR/><BR/>Laughingwolf, thanks! No snow here today. It was actually in the balmy 50s yesterday. I've found that seeds of early spring blooming annuals do better when sown in November. But my mother just sent the poppy seeds, so February will have to do! I hope it's not too late...Catherine Viberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01354073276671196477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065576345622223007.post-83416547579601579862009-02-02T05:07:00.000-08:002009-02-02T05:07:00.000-08:00nice watercolor, cat :Das for he rest... yup, time...nice watercolor, cat :D<BR/><BR/>as for he rest... yup, time away from the net is soul-refreshing!<BR/><BR/>you're sowing seeds IN THE SNOW?<BR/><BR/>wow!laughingwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08873675614347328116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065576345622223007.post-51371529655690371622009-02-01T23:13:00.000-08:002009-02-01T23:13:00.000-08:00I've known you to be a spiritual person, Cat. You'...I've known you to be a spiritual person, Cat. You're attuned to balance, can sense when there's imbalance. Posting about this matter shows, too, that you are a sensible person; you have your way of diverting creative energy and attention to some other outlet, even for just a while. All for balance. There's a bit of Zen in you. Maybe a lot. ;) Cheers.S.L.

Since the Ascension contest, I've been too often on this computer! I just told myself today that I'm going to limit myself to once a day checking blogsites and am going to do something else as well. I have a piece of furniture I want to refinish and I want to exercise, too. <BR/><BR/>Your painting "zone" is a great place to be. Go there, go there!
