Swing’in Above the Clouds

#74/365 Paintings

I won’t pretend this isn’t a self portrait. Painting this was therapeutic today after a hectic day. Swing’in above it all, giggling like crazy — nearly better than a glass of champagne.

Happy Friday everyone. Stay above it all, laugh, drink some champagne!

What a fun image for a Friday. A wild whoopee into the weekend. I hope yours is great.

  Thank you. It’s already off to a great start with banana pancake and big ol rabbit kiss from my alpha, Dakota this morning first thing.

What a delicious image – it rests well as my iPhone image of you.. I’m laughing as I tap this message out to you. Ah, to be free and easy; like a child at play…
