Day 18

All My Needs Are Met, oil, 16 x 16

So this is the demo painting from last night.  Notice the title…a lot to say about that…but what happened was: I forgot my paint supplies!  Yes, I brought the set up, lights, extension cords, easel, palette, etc. but I left my painting bag in my studio after carefully checking off that all my stuff was in it.  So I drive 2 hours in Friday West LA traffic (1 hour to go the first 5 miles and then another for the next 35) and realize as we’re unloading the awful truth.  Amazingly, there was a woman there who said she lived nearby and offered to get her paints, brushes, turps–how incredibly generous!  I figured there was no hope of me doing a decent painting with her much cheaper supplies, but you know, either that freed me up or cheaper supplies don’t matter as much as I thought they did, or both!   I’ve been worrying about finances and had heard Michael Beckwith on Hay House telling a caller in a similar situation to keep repeating “All my needs are met”–and so they are!

    I will go with all our needs are met, all the time, if we would just quit thinking it should look a certain way.

        Yes, Jen, it had gone to the spam folder but I retrieved it. Thank you!

    This is such a beautiful vibrant painting. Hard to imagine using someone else’s paints, when we get so attached to our brands and hues.

      Thanks, Debra. I tried to look at it like an adventure…and I was lucky that no one got hurt.
