The spirit finally just took possession of me last night, must be the magic of Mayday, and I painted furiously between eleven and three in the morning. I am not unhappy with the work so far, and I am ecstatic to have finally painted again. hanks to all of you who’ve expressed your confidence in me that I would paint again, those little nudges go a long way to keeping me on track. For those four hours I felt no pain, no miseries of any kind, it was wonderful.

Your paintings are wonderful, too, Aletta. Fantastic that you felt good, too.

I find May Day to be powerfully inspiring as well, although I never manage to celebrate like I would like to. I, too, know what it’s like to come out of a long dry spell with art. Your painting is lovely!
