Last day of January and I am still here - cause for celebration and a small, self congratulatory pat on the back! I am enjoying playing with paint, pushing it around and letting the colours mix a bit on the page. There is something a bit strange about this expression, something a little assessing, and a bit wry. I guess that is ok, self assessment isn't a bad thing, as long as I remember to be kind to myself as well. I do like the energetic brush strokes and the colour range, which also reflect the feeling of the day. It is sunny, blue skied, with the wind playful and not hot. The best sort of summer's day. I noticed the horse chestnuts are just starting to change colour - they are the very first mention of the approaching autumn. I feel ambivalent despite the gorgeous leaves and still days that autumn brings. Focus on the now, not the coming days, is essential or I will descend into a melancholy!
