RDP Friday – Wise

thanks to the Ragtag community for hosting RDP https://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2023/04/07/rdp-friday-wise/

Today’s word is ‘wise’ and I feel I made a wise decision. I’ve been thinking about doing this for awhile. As some of you may know I am preparing for my second art show and I’ve been busy making new work. I feel, however, that I might have to use some work that I’ve already shown in the past year but I’m feeling pretty confident that most of the pieces will be new.

Having said that I painted a floral abstract that I’ve put in three shows already and it’s never sold. It was part of a series of paintings and all of the other paintings sold. Today I decided it was time to make a change because I have to admit that over the past several weeks I’ve been dreaming about how I might change it. This afternoon I had the courage to do just that. I’m glad I did because I’m liking it much better.

I think I made a wise choice.

Here are the ‘before’ and then the ‘after’ shots.

It was a beautiful sunny day when we decided to check out the Arboretum. I can’t wait to go back when the leaves come out the flowers come up.

Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Lonely Character

thanks to Sue W and GC for hosting Weekly Prompts https://weeklyprompts.com/2023/04/05/weekly-prompts-wednesday-challenge-character/

Who is that lonely character that I see before me?

Off in the distance, standing guard on the grass

Hidden but not, an unusual white mass

His days are numbered for him to see

The weather is his enemy.
