But as a good storyteller should, I left some room for you and others to interpret the idea of morning essentials through your own lens.
Here's what I found in my inbox: (full names kept private)
"Coffee(that always comes first, for me!), quiet and reflection." J.M.
"Sitting outside w cup of coffee, bare feet planted in fresh, dewy grass and birds chirping. Gave you more than two lol. I love all the elements of this painting. Think it's one of my favorites!" K.A.
"My thoughts on "Morning Essentials" are a fresh cup of coffee to wake me up and jump start my day. My other thought is that God has graced me with another morning to wake up and see the beauty and majesty of His creation through what I see out the window. I absolutely love this painting!! Thank you for always sharing your stories, I thoughtfully enjoy them." B.B.
"Sunlight and caffeine, both essential to me." P.E
"The story I imagine: "Beginning at sunrise with fresh ground coffee" Thanks for helping me receive more appreciation of art in its fullness." P.B.
"My morning essentials are my electric blanket and closed blinds. But you allmost make me wish I were a morning person." J.T.
I had a fun time reading those! Thank you!!
Did you notice how pretty much everyone nailed what I was trying to convey, yet each person also read their own experiences into it?
So let's have a little more fun.
(Only one more question and no deep analysis required, I promise).
Below are four of the paintings I worked on this week that are either finished or are well on their way.
