How would you want your life to be depicted on canvas?
Would your painting be a sedate and beautiful portrait, with lush carpets and Victorian drapery, small dogs panting on your lap? Would you want to find yourself in the vibrant energy of a Van Gogh? Or how about a military masterpiece with you leading the charge?
I think because I’ve always been such an anxious soul, I’d like to see myself painted on horseback in a Frederic Remington painting (sidesaddle with navy blue riding habit). My fear and my love of horses have become the analogy of my life so far. I’d want to be painted on a hero’s journey, riding toward courage and leaving fear in the dust of my horse’s galloping hooves.

I’d love to be painted as a barn swallow on the wind in one of those magical paintings where you can see and feel the wind. ♥️

You have such a painterly way with words! I can see it in my mind’s eye, the swallow’s beauty mixing with the clouds you wrote about last week.
