It's a beautiful Cinco de Mayo and in honor of today, the piece to the left is titled Chelita Mexican Flower Girl. It is a portrait of my older sister Glicelda as a flower girl for someones wedding day. This piece took some time do as I had to tape of each stripe and then wait for them to dry.
As I ran on the treadmill at the gym yesterday, I was struggling as I haven't been running much lately. And I remembered the words that my senior track coach would tell us. "I'm happy, healthy, I am terrific." he said to repeat these words as we ran. I have kept these words all these years. They lift up my spirits and remind me to be greatful for the many people and things in my life. I have been blessed. It's interesting the things we keep dear to us and how powerful some simple words can be.
Lately, I haven't also been painting. I've been in some sort of a rutt. How to I get out of this? Something needs to change and I don't know what. Is there some words inside me that can help? What can I remember? I am writing this hoping that something comes out and spills onto the page. Nothing! Oh well, I will jump in the shower and go out for a walk and some sunshine!
Cheerios!
