I am glad you have been doing something that brings you some joy even though you

have to pay for it afterwards. I will bet your paintings are beautiful. I will

try to look up the website you posted.

Good to know you are still with us.

hugs,

Debra V.

Hey ya'll I'm back, I have been painting a portrait of my grandson for

the last week. Yes you guessed it now I'm in pain...I'm a hobby artist

and I love to paint, it really helps me escape. I can put the pain

back in the back ground usually when I paint, It's there and I know it

but I love what I'm doing and put up with it & so I just go for it. My

husband says " your going to be sorry " and I am because as soon as a

painting is done, my shoulders, neck , back, lower back, ribs, hands,

yep anything that's involved in painting goes into big time PAIN. I've

actually had to go to bed over it sometimes... To me it will be worth

it to see the faces of my son & wife when I give them this

portrait....so I'm checking in to see what's up and to let ya'll know

I'm still around. Welcome all you newbies!!! If you want to see any of

my paintings I have a webpage, you can go to it. It's www.hinkys-paint-

gallery.hobbies.homepagenow.com enjoy! Talk to ya'll later....Hinky
