Thursday check in...

We returned on Tuesday from the show at the Shaker
Village in Kentucky.  I love it there, have a bunch more
great photos waiting to become great paintings!
Wednesday was spent unloading, laundry, helped a friend
who had a bicycle accident and purchased some supplies
from a local photographer who passed away.

Thoughts:  It is an odd feeling to walk into someones studio
who recently passed away and dig through all his supplies.
Picking out what I can use. Realizing how little value the
equipment now has and his photos setting there with little value.
A career that has ended.
Linda was a little unsettled when we got home to my studio.
You look around with a different set of eyes.  I like to think I
live in the moment and leave behind great paintings and
fond memories but someday some other artist will be
buying my supplies at a discount and dig through my
studio and wonder why in the world I kept so much stuff!

Tomorrow I will be packing for the BIG Lititz Craft Show.
The show:

It is Sad when someone passes and leave their possesions for others to go through. Everyone is GREAT someway in their own way. Enjoy life the best you can TODAY
