Tonight's Occupation


I've spent the last three days on a scaffold painting huge canvases.  With big sloppy brushes.  Hopping down to get a good look, climbing back up again to continue painting.  The scale of it gets almost mind-numbing after awhile...and definitely shoulder-aching.

So tonight I got out my sketch book and my colored pencils (and a blanket, and a glass of water, and an ice cream bar) and worked small.  And as I worked small, I reveled in COLOR!!  I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that I thank the Lord for color at least every other day.  It is a constant source of joy to me.
