"Carnival Flowers"

This is probably going to be a short post. As many of you know, I had a death in my family. I visited Savannah last weekend to attend my cousin Mike's wedding on Saturday. On Sunday, there were very bad storms and he was killed in a car accident. We were very close. The two of us were both adopted, so we felt a special bond. 1964- me and my cousin Mike, with his Dad.
He lived with my Grandmother, and I spent every day of summer vacation and holidays with him. I was shocked and devastated...but I cannot imagine how it is for his new bride. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers.
I finished this painting and video before I went to Savannah, and didn't have time to post it. It was inspired by the swing ride at the carnival. I went to Disney World for the 1st time at age 7 with my cousin, Mike. The carnival ride in the video reminds me of that fun time. I hope you enjoy it.
I will be back soon with new work. I'm finding the most comfort in being quiet and painting, I've had a lot of new inspiration, despite the circumstances. And I can't wait to share it with you.
Love,
Wyanne
