The frustrated painter inside of me has decided to hang out for a while. Since last Monday I have been ill with the lovely upper respiratory virus that has been making the rounds. I feel as if my body has taken ten steps backwards following last Sunday’s wonderful 10K run under the giant Redwoods. I am hacking and coughing and sniffling and am finding it hard to get enough rest. To take my mind off the illness, I edited a ton of photos I had hanging out in my iPhone photo gallery. Every single photo I edited ended up with a painterly feel. I have learned to just trust my intuition when editing and go along for the ride for a while until my creative spirit takes another turn.
