Thankful for Today, Hopeful for Tomorrow Painting

This series of faces were painted after my return from the devastating earthquakes in Kathmandu, Nepal in April 2015. While the earthquakes and aftershocks were happening I was so surprised to find the resiliency of the people there. When the ground became still again, if all was well, there was immediate joy, laughter, music, and dancing. I had never seen anything like it. These paintings are a reminder to choose joy in every situation. A reminder to not focus on the past or the "what if's" but to focus on "what is". These were featured in a show at Catsketch Studio at the Brewery in Los Angeles in 2015. I sketched them with graphite, then laid in watercolor and oil pastel. The nature of each medium helped me communicate the language I was feeling inside. It was a wonderful exercise for me in expression and letting go. This painting was painted in Brooklyn, NY.
