This lovely picture is cropped from my 18 year old’s original art. She painted this picture when she was 15 & 1/2- It was in the art show at her high school that year & is actually an 11 by 14 picture very heavy on the stormy ocean & sky- the woman w
ith the lantern is incidental in the original picture to tell you the truth!
Ms 18’s art skills are amazing to me. I’m ok at crafts but actually painting something & having it come out even marginally close to what I envisioned is not something I have happen often. Which I why I stick to crafts- straight lines & stylized things.
Originally I had thought to change this occasionally but I love this so much I can’t bear to give it up.
Am I Half Dead or Am I Doin' fine? 
Try more of her art, if you are going to change it sometimes!
Lovely.
I love this picture too. Thank you for sharing it. If I may, I’d like to write a poem using this picture as inspiration. There is a lot of emotion stored up within the frame.
Thank you so much! Ms 18 is very flattered by your comment. We both hope you’ll send us a link when your poem is completed.
