By the way never throw out anything you've done. I found years ago that at the time you may see nothing good about it, but when you look at it again a while later with new eyes you'll find parts you like if not the whole thing. In later years you can use those paintings to cut and paste into collages when you can't see well enough to paint anymore or your hands aren't steady enough. Put them in a large portfolio and keep them.

(6,608 posts)It gives me hope. She stands as she always has, unfazed, with such definition that implies such strength of character while surrounding her is chaos, lack of clarity and darkness.
I'm going to trust that all she stands for that you so wonderfully captured will survive.
Thank you
