Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to you!
 
As, I sit here relaxing now, as the turkey is in the oven and I await family to arrive for dinner, I am reminded of all I have to be thankful for.  I am thankful for shelter, food, clothing; all the necessities of life.   But, what I find myself most thankful for is people.  The people in my life who join with me in the daily activities .  Whether it be by phone call or in person, I am thankful for all the relationships that keep me going who give me encouragement and friendship as we share the ins and outs of life.    I try to encourage and give my care in return.

Here are some faces that I am so very thankful for; my art students.  No matter how I am feeling that day, when one of my art students walk in the door, my face lights up.  I just love what I do.   I couldn't imagine doing anything else now!  
  
November was watercolor month.  We accomplished a lot by doing three projects! 
Here is one of the projects: SELF PORTRAITs.
