just a quick note letting you all know

this will be my last post for a while and i don't know for how long.

i am ok, however feel i need to take a break for a while, and collect myself so i can take up painting with renewed energy, positiveness and inspiration something that i am very much lacking in at present.

i will certainly miss doing this but feel it best to try and recuperate and get some needed rest and some sunshine as i have found myself very exhausted with many late nights with very little sleep painting these works and others over the last few months.

this upsets me because painting has provided me with such joy, and i am at my happiest when doing so and as such will miss it.



pushing through with very little energy, motivation and inspiration left, i worked on this last painting today so i could at the very least post it up to complete this series. i don't think there are anymore Moonlight Ladies to paint here, that need to what i call - 'come out'!

thanking all of you who have been so very kind in providing support here and on RB, i have very much appreciated the time you all take to leave your positive comments of encouragement on my paintings and i will certainly miss this support.

having said this, i am still answering emails and i will try and visit blogs and keep in touch on RB with those of you i have come to know when i can, as this is also something which fills me with great joy as i also love to provide support and encouragement in return.

i guess this is a nice work to finish with as it is my wish.
wishing everyone pace e serenita` which in Italian means
peace and serenity
dal cuoreas this is my wish for you all as well
love, hugs and a presto

talent. It is what we do. Your friend Patti

It’s good to take a break sometimes and come back refreshed, I hope the break will be just what you need. I bought the Artist’s Palette just this last week and recognized your work straight away. Congratulations on being featured, your work is truly beautiful and well deserving of recognition. I love how creative you are! I look forward to your return :)

Un altro splendido acquerello! Sogni e poesia trovo siano un elemento costante nei tuoi splendidi acquerelli. A cui si deve aggiungere, fantasia, creatività, e la capacità di creare emozioni.
Un abbraccio from Italy!!!

As Mark Twain said, let the inspirtaion tank fill up again, it will, it always does. See you soon!

Hi PG,
..all artists need time out to rejuvenate and reinvigorate the soul..

i wrote a short poem to hopefully reflect your/our Cancerian connection to the Moon and as a homage to your Moonlight series.. here it is..

Moon

Full Moon (siamo tutti legati)…
Seamless phase-transitions:
now a round window-sill to
Dreamness and radiance
Filled with reflection
of hidden Sun;
Yet transposed
to white-gold, adesso d’argento
Rhymes of Moon,
Maree, maree..

Cancerian pianeta
Perfectly matched to the coin or cusp of Sun
Which the Moon may eclipse to reveal
Such perfection.

******
best wishes PG,
wayne
