More importantly, however, is the fact that I think all art is meant to be shared and enjoyed. What good is it hanging on some dark wall, gathering dust and rarely seen by anyone other than perhaps the artist. Each piece is the reflection of a mood or an emotion, behind which is an untold story. Here are some of my watercolor paintings and stories behind them.Visit Wrights Lanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06483348523633557317noreply@blogger.comBlogger1125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4422327019058119158.post-59593137121987547742008-12-19T14:13:00.000-08:002008-12-20T03:35:11.161-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj855P50TZHnUpfj_XOY4x6O6PPzgzvFQSwfGNmZzBySRDcRc_W3rvX7ZtJEopsghQfY8Qg8N_5onJ6-dUmHth1j2zAC_U-PVrXIFIqdBcR2MOrFee5CgBs5bRgSiq0iLcSi9nqq3ert14/s1600-h/DSCF0138.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281628307961135362" style="WIDTH: 296px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj855P50TZHnUpfj_XOY4x6O6PPzgzvFQSwfGNmZzBySRDcRc_W3rvX7ZtJEopsghQfY8Qg8N_5onJ6-dUmHth1j2zAC_U-PVrXIFIqdBcR2MOrFee5CgBs5bRgSiq0iLcSi9nqq3ert14/s400/DSCF0138.JPG" border="0" /></a> <strong><span style="font-family:arial;">This is my favorite</span></strong> <span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>painting</strong> because it reminds me of a time that I would dearly love to relive. The impulse to want to put my arms around the little shoulders belonging to my daughters Debbie and Cindy and squeeze them tightly is overwhelming some 40 years later. The painting was actually created from a black and white photograph that I took of the two girls, then ages 6 and 3, as they trudged and splashed along the Lake Erie shoreline at Port Ryersee, just a few miles from our home in Simcoe at that time. </span>Visit Wrights Lanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06483348523633557317noreply@blogger.com1
