I asked for suggestions for a title for this painting on IG, and Lianna said it looked like a tower in pastel fog. I had London bridge in mind the whole time I was create it, so I split the difference, and came up with London Fog. Thank you, Lianna for helping me out. 🙂

Speaking of IG, I’m so late to the party, I knoooow, but I’ve been having so much fun creating daily stories. It’s so weird that I jumped on this bandwagon because for the longest time, I didn’t like IG stories. I felt like it was a huge distraction, and annoying, but last summer, all of a sudden it clicked with me, and I became addicted to watching all the stories.

Then, finally, a couple weeks ago, I decided to try making a story myself, and omgawd..I’m soooo hooked now. It’s actually so much easier than thinking up hashtags, and all that jazz..really love it.

If you haven’t followed me on IG yet, you can find me here.

It was a foggy day in London, and the fog was heavy and dark. Animate London, with smarting eyes and irritated lungs, was blinking, wheezing, and choking; inanimate London was a sooty spectre, divided in purpose between being visible and invisible, and so being wholly neither.

Charles Dickens, Our Mutual Friend

This painting is thick with texture, luscious layers of artist quality paint, and collage papers.

Be true to yourself, only you know your own real truth…so follow your heart down your path through the fog, muting all the noise, and walk out into the meaningful light of the silent truth.
