Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting with the gift of speech.
Simonides - Greek poet (556 BC - 468 BC)
I am a teacher of emotionally and behaviorally disturbed children and I love it! I have been given a gift to be able to see past the behavior and appreciate the person. I do not say this to brag because I truly believe it is a gift and not of my own doing. I also love to paint. It is such a wonderful way to appreciate the world and to express emotions I have no words for. Workday or weekend, I always wake up looking forward to my day. How cool is that?!?! In some of my paintings you will see that there is heartbreak in my life as well.
