DRINK
This wine glass is never empty. I painted it about 3 years ago when as I called it "I couldn't find peace in my head. As I started to paint I recalled all the flowers in my flower bed, and I do love flowers. It's so amazing how one little seed can make such a beautiful thing, or how a ratty old plant can become beautiful with just a little care. My head was now full of my best friend and her sister planting lilies and laughing so hard, my son putting in apple trees, my kids and grandchildren asking "Can we pick a Basket of flowers?" I often just get out all six of them and go to my peaceful place/. They will never be just be empty glasses to me and the grandchildren often asked "Grammy can we drink out of your magic glasses.
Your glass is beautiful, so special. Your explanation is even more beautiful. Actually put a lump in my throat... thanks for sharing such special drink :)
