Some days simply overflowing with humble gratitude. An unexpected belly laugh from your partner, child or a friend. The dampness of morning air on your cheek. Maybe it is the sounds of the tree frogs nearby that does it for you? Or an eagle hanging on a branch with a robust sea coming to shore?
What are those everyday experiences that remind you of your humanness and connection to nature?
Today my Art of Terrill Welch Facebook Page has 837 followers or “Likes.” Just so you know, when it reaches 1,000 I am going to auction off an 8 x 10 inch landscape painting sketch. It will be a new adventure for me though I have seen it done many times before. The bidding is done in the comments on the post and there is a small reserved bid to start. In order to comment one must have “Liked” the page. Do be careful though as it is easy to “unlike” a page you have already liked by accident
P.s. This is a snippet from WEST COAST EARLY EVENING WINTER SEA 16 x 20 inch which will be unveiled at my solo exhibition “West Coast Landscape as Home” April 3, 2015 at Camassia Café on Mayne Island, British Columbia Canada. If you are considering traveling to come to this opening, now is the time to make plans as it is the Saturday of Easter Weekend.
All the best of a fine Sunday to you!

Such beautiful words and image, Terrill. Thank you for sharing them.
You are most welcome Leanne! Just back from Camassia Cafe with a wee bit of a plan as to what paintings will go where. Pretty exciting!
Great painting. Love what you are doing.
Thanks Shirley Ann! I have been meaning to invite you and Sherwin down for a visit to see the new work but time just keeps slipping away on me.
Terrill — this is SUCH a beautiful piece!
This morning while walking Willa the thing that “did it for me” was listening to the frozen leaves — remnants from autumn — crunch and crackle under our feet/paws. It was early enough that we were pretty much the only noise makers (even the birds were still asleep)…
The morning sounds perfect Laurie! The other day I smelled a whiff of spring. It was only for a few hours in the afternoon but unmistakable.
