Sisters and Girlfriends

Yesterday I had the pleasure of catching up with a girlfriend I rarely see anymore. A simple hour together, sharing all the going's on of our families - but moreover, learning new things about each other. We never new that we were both into art, being so busy with our husbands and families!

Isn't it always true that from our girlfriends, our sisters, we learn new ways to navigate all the challenges we face as our lives wind their way through time? The act of sharing - opening up about our fears, making each other laugh (laughing at ourselves!), and giving strength in tough times - makes us better people, more open, more confident, more patient.

This painting was done with love for my sister, with whom I share much more than a love of giraffes ;-)
