It's such an honor when a friends says, "I have something I want you to paint for me."
Tina has been a dear friend for... my goodness, how does time get away so quickly... 25 years!
Words that come to mind when I think of her are strength of spirit, perseverance, patience, acceptance, common sense, joy, and loyalty.

My cherished friend, Helen...Your painting for me far exceeded what I pictured it would be like! It will minister to my soul for years to come, and everytime I see it, I will be reminded of our blessed friendship and how you have been such a support for me! God has blessed you with an amazing talent & I am thankful you shared it with me!
ReplyDeleteIt was a pleasure. Love you!
DeleteThank~you so much my cherished friend, for my painting! When I "commissioned" you for this, I knew you would put your own touch on it and it would reflect what I am striving for in my life. It is perfect and will continue to minister to my soul each time I look at it! I am so glad you asked Ron to take our picture! It was a sweet moment at church when you presented me with the painting! We both wore the same color of dress and it reflected in the colors of the painting. May God continue to bless your talent!
