Hi,
Last week I shared a little about what goes into a good story and asked
what you thought the morning essentials were in the painting below,
based on the title and the image.
Morning Essentials
Morning Essentials 20"x20" Oil
Several people responded with some predictable, and some not so
predictable answers.
Before I share those, keep in mind that there are no right or wrong
answers.
Most who responded pretty much caught what I was trying to communicate.
That always feels good.
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.

Each of these tells my own story in some way, but here comes the
question:
Does one of these tell YOUR story?
