Honora dH Russell. April 26, 2020. Sebastopol, California, USA.

I have painted my whole life, but never had instruction. The shelter-in-place has given me the chance to paint more, so I have been practicing more frequently than ever before. This piece was in response to a brilliant mentor telling me to focus on something that brings me joy, after I broke down crying when faced with doing a 4 hour Zoom call. So I painted. And I got through the call.
