As I started painting the different figures, I played with the dress and limited the color palette to the original colors. I am partial to the yellow dress and green stripes sleeves. Which dress do you like?

Ella is the main character of the poem Fair Weather Friend by Shannon Tappana.
I have enjoyed getting to know Ella. She is sweet and soft spoken, easy going and has a great heart.

In drawing her emotions, I explore my feelings (see the notes below the drawings) and the awareness it brings is humbling really.

So, I hope you are finding lots of balanced moments through your days, that you continue to amaze yourself, and take a minute to listen to your emotions.
