My sister has been ill for several months to the point where she can't drive and at times must use a walker. The doctors are clueless. One of my family's favorite quotes from the movie Dirty Dancing is "NOBODY PUTS BABY IN A CORNER!" Well, that's my sister's attitude. She has used this time to be still and draw nearer to God as He unfolds what He has in store for her in this next season of life. She has discovered a new talent and passion. Painting. Look at the beauty God creates through her when she picks up a paintbrush. Just amazing! She is such an inspiration to me.
Dawn's rendition of Monet's "The Cliff Walk"
Monet's "The Cliff Walk"
Obviously, my sister's is a bit better:) She uses acrylic paints, whereas Monet uses oil. Acrylic dries much faster, so you can't blend the colors on the canvas. You have to blend them before putting them on the canvas. If these are Dawn's first attempts at painting, can you imagine what her art work will be like in years to come??? I've already put in my order!
