I always go years between picking up a paintbrush. And I always wonder why. Why don’t I paint for me? Why do I only ever paint when someone else asks for something? Yesterday, it was a pet portrait for a fundraiser.

I had so much fun just doing something I hadn’t done in forever. Don’t get so busy being a grownup that you forget to play, friends.
