The Weather Tree.

Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.

When I first started painting again after waiting for 36 years for my son to leave home and settle down into a life of his own, I was like a nervous teenager again.

My dream of being an artist had been put on hold for so long that I didn’t have the confidence that comes with time.

This morning I just delivered the Weather Tree painting to my wonderful neighbours Jan and Roger. It is a housewarming gift for their new home.

As you can tell by their faces they were pleased to receive it. I’m always nervous about handing over paintings to their new owners, and watch their reactions carefully to how they react when seeing them for the first time. It makes me happy knowing others love my work as much as I do making it.
The view of the weather tree has been theirs for sixty years, and now Roger has the Weather Tree to keep.

I am so pleased they are happy with the painting and it has a new home.

Keep following your dream you’ll never where it will take you.
