"Recognize the blessings that are raining down on you, and enjoy them with thanks."
(D&C 105:12)
I started this painting months and months ago and finally finished it yesterday.
The idea came from a journal entry excerpt I had written just after my divorce was finalized:
"I think sometimes it's better to simply forget your trials and focus on how great your life really and truly is."

Amen sister.
PS: I love the texture in your pieces- the swirls in the gray remind me of van Gogh.
Stunning!
