Here are two of my paintings that I slightly altered from the originals.
The first one I titled Gratitude.
When I focus on Gratitude
my world becomes more vivid, more beautiful, more magical.
I titled the second painting, A new day.
It reminds me that every day is a fresh start, a clean slate.
Prints are available:

These are beautiful, Julie... my favorites so far I think :)
I love the glowing figure set against the deep watery washes in Gratitude and how the tree seems to turn into the birds in A New Day!

I enjoyed both paintings and the words that went with them. I really believe that being grateful for each day makes everything seem so much more special.

Gratitude and every day a new beginning. That's something worth having! I remember both of these from first time around. You seem to be including a lot of lovely sunshiney yellow in your work just now. :)

Julie, the colors are these two are so gorgeous to me. I have enjoyed browsing around on your blog and picked this spectacular post to comment on. Thanks for visiting my blog. I have two: one for challenges; the other for everything else including PPF. I am not a beach person like you but I do love to be around water (mountain streams, in particular). We need to stop and be grateful every day for what we have and who we are.
