a painting of how i’m feeling right now
I painted this watercolor painting the other day. It made me emotional just to look at my finished product because it somehow captures my mood lately. I know I’m not really alone… I have Lisa, my children and friends. But somehow I still find myself in these desolate and deserted emotional landscapes. You know what I mean. It’s available here if you want it.

It is a very emotive picture. I like the way that the light shines on even through the rain and doesn’t quite reach the man. Reminds me of the feeling far from God times.
Struck a chord with me too. Sometimes its just a hard slog here isn’t it. Be kind to yourself till it passes
Hey David
I wrote a poem a long time ago that reminds me of your painting……..here you go.
Born for a reason
I still do not know
Was told I was loved
Which I believe is still so
But sometimes I fell like footsteps in the snow
I disappear everytime the wind blows
Growing fast oh how the world changes
My eyes see it on way, but then it rearranges
She told me she loved me, but then she said no
Sometimes I feel like footsteps in the snow
I disappear everytime the wind blows
Marry I might and have my own
Yet I still dont know the reason, with each passing season
The time will soon come when like
Footsteps in the snow
I disappear when the wind blows.
I stood in the middle of a grandstand full of people tonight at our county fair, listening to a friend sing…and I couldn’t keep the tears from falling. Among hundreds of people, I felt completely and totally and desolately alone.
Yes, I know what you mean.
And John T, thank you for sharing the poem.
I read this line earlier tonight, “Rivers of water run down from my eyes”. Your painting is beautiful David. Thank you.
I know how you feel man, so to cheer you up have a look at this

I find that image comforting for some reason. I think it’s because I’m in a work situation where I’m surrounded by people for 12-16 hours a day and am not getting much time for solitude which I’m craving.
Standing alone letting the rain wash over me sounds very comforting.
Thanks for the image David.
