Lightning Sprite Finished

Filed Under (Art Projects) by Lizzy D. on 10-05-2010

I had intentions to post this the other day but my body went on strike and shut down on me on Thursday.  I spent most of that day sleeping and being a vegetable.  I guess I was using more energy than I’d thought the last couple of weeks.  Listen to your body folks or it will stop listening to you.  Friday was busy, then the weekend flew by, and now here we are!

First I finished my painting titled ‘Lightning Sprite’. You can see the a larger version in my fantasy art gallery. There were so many times I wanted to give up and quit but I couldn’t.  For one, I would kick myself for the rest of my life knowing I failed at a piece, but the main reason I kept going because my husband wanted to see it finished.  I know I say this so many times on this blog but I consider myself a very lucky woman to be married to such a wonderful supporting man.

While we are on the subject of my husband, he gave the most wonderful mother’s day present.  He took me to see “Celtic Women” this last week.  It was even better than I imagined it to be.  We were up in the nose-bleed section but we could see the whole stage perfectly.  The concert was in the ASU Gammage, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.  I thought I would just put that in for those curious.  So yes it was an amazing experience and I had never felt so special or so loved in my whole entire life!  So again thank you “Love”.

The next morning I had to take my son to the dentist to have some cavities drilled.  Because he has autism he had to be sedated first.  He had to drink the mixture and then wait for 45 minutes.  I thought that the drug would slow him down; instead he started bouncing off the walls!  And to add to that he walked up too almost every kid in the waiting room, asked their name, ran back to me to tell me their name and then ran back to the child so he can tell him his name.  It was embarrassing but cute.  At the end the dentist said my son did great! But he still has to go back in to get the rest of his teeth done. :P

So this weekend is Leprecon.  For those of you that are going to be down in Arizona for this event please stop on by the art show and see the beautiful work that me and the other artists have worked so hard on.   I’m a little nervous being that this is my first time I’m putting art in a show but I’m excited at the same time.  It will be fun to see how this goes.
