Past Glories...Future Dreams

(this painting from last summer sold to help rescue)
***
I am still on self-imposed hiatus...incase you may have wondered. :-)
Seems like forever but I have been using my time, behind the scenes in my life, to get things in some kind of order as this decade of my life comes to a close. Ah yes....the 50's will soon be a faint memory.
...but don't fret...I will be kicking off the next one with style. LOL!
***
It has been long overdue. I had a lot of "stuff" to cull from my home and head.
I have wanted to spend more time with family and with my Lizzie who will be 12 yrs old next month.
She was the model for the painting above...by the way!
***
I have the studio all ready to be used ...Emmi, the little thug cat who rules the house has been keeping watch over the room and spending lots of quality cat-time energetically sleeping soundly in the rocker in there.
She is coming up on age 17 yrs in the fall. Cranky to Lizzie at times but adorable in my eyes.
***
Past Glories are the 300+ paintings that have sold to help homeless animals in need that I have created over the past few years...
Future Dreams are swirling about somewhere in the back recesses of my creative brain.
My Muse has been traveling abroad all these months and I am counting on her to bring back some new and fabulous ideas that will help me go forward in this decidedly punk economy when it comes time to donate my percentages to so many, many animals in need.
***
Currently I have promised 2 charities a 100% donation for fundraisers for the winners of a custom portrait and I will be fulfilling those promises as soon as said winners give me the images to work from.
In my heart I am hoping that it will give me the juice I need to get back to work with the passion that this kind of work takes to do well.
***
Hope you are having a wonderful summer so far and hope to be in touch with you soon.
ALL MY VERY BEST
Carol
