Sunning and Shining

Maria Victoria

Aye...
I'm back.
I've rested.
I'd like to rest some more.
I painted a little.
I took pictures.
I'm good and tired and smiling.

Feels like the last thing I remember, or just barely remember, was waking up at 11:30pm on New Year's Eve, getting dressed in an outfit I'm going to blame on waking up disillusioned and ringing in the new year with one sleepy nephew, one brother in law, one sister (for about 5 minutes) and RW. The rest has moved so quickly that's been a blur.

Hope things in your life are working together.
Keep good.

Keeping Haiti in prayer...Bon courage.
Trinis: there's a drop off point for foodstuff, blankets and clothing at
the COP flagship office on the corner of Broome and Tragarete. 9am - 3pm. Please label your donations.

Those pictures look like signs of a nice winter vacation. Not totally sure what your New Year's Eve outfit looks like a sign of, though... ;-)

What do you do to stay inspired? Does it snow where you are? Maybe it's the snow . . . I'm really running low on fuel, and I don't know where to turn.

ChinChin said...

I love them! The first one especially, there's something about her I can identify with, I'm not sure what though. And you should really think about fashion design!

You look great on the beach, like you really soaked up the sun rays =D .. send some sun my way!

Bri said...

TKOG: :) I dunno either.I looked at the pic the next day, looked at RW and said "you couldn't say something?!". He laughed.

Lois: Girl...the sneakers...and the socks. I was supposed to look cute! Instead I look like I wearing a nightie with sneakers and socks.
In my defense though, I look like I'm still asleep. :)

Hello, Brianna,

I just discovered your blog and had to read it from start to finish, hungry for more. You are an amazingly talented young woman, and I wish you reap the recognition you fully deserve.

Your profile says you're self-taught? I'm in awe! Those girls/women you paint are marvellous, so soulful.

Again, thanks for those amazing outbursts of creativity! I'll second the poster above: how do you stay inspired?

Yup, the situation in Haiti unsettles me. But I am positive that out of destruction, will come rebirth; a stronger, better Haiti.
