Morning with the Moon
She rises each day, before her sister... before obligations and breakfast, chatter and business. The night before she has looked at the sky. What are its nuances? She carries them into quiet morning moments. If the sky has disappointed with a blank stare, she imagines color, shape.
I find her paintings when I pass through and she has gone on to other things... reading, sewing, building, chatting. I find them and drink in her morning with the moon.

Really wonderful paintings. I especially marvel at the intricacy and beauty of her first sky photo.
Really like that top one!
She's so talented. What joy she must bring to the opening of each new day.
I'm learning much from your un-student. She is teaching me awe....
Laura, I am touched the beauty of Sara's paintings and your poignant reflection. :) Your talents blow me away. xoxo
