Gratitude...

I have a quiet moment while the girls are home. Celeste is bowling with her friends, Savannah is on the Tablet, and Sierra is playing with Maggie. Since they are occupied, I have a moment to do my gratitude journal.
1. I'm thankful for healthy children.
2. I'm thankful for my marriage.
3. I'm thankful for the power of sealing.
4. I'm thankful for M&Ms.
5. I'm thankful for a sweet husband who got me the M&Ms.

That's all I can focus on right now. I'm feeling less blah today but still feel uninspired to do my artwork. Maybe if I did a splatter painting to spark my artistic side. Hopefully the paint is still good. I could do a black painting with varying gray splatters and a bit of white. I could mix in some red to warm up the gray. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow when the kids get on the computers. I wish I could do something with my splatter paintings. I really like doing them. I just wish I could be paid for them. I'm still hanging on the attention I got with my painting Dysfunction. Surely I can find a niche for my paintings, but with everyone else who can splatter, I don't know if I can. I wish I had an array of paints of different colors. Do a painting in a variety of reds, tones of blues, tints of white. Someday. That could be my niche. Monochromatic paintings. My instructors always told me to simplify my work. Okay now I'm feeling inspired. Now I just need to afford it.
