Twyla on Tuesday

Hello dear friends!

This is a mixed media collage picture I

did recently.  I was inspired by the words of the

old song, 'Wings of a Dove'.

I first painted the background and the fountain

and cut pictures of doves from images I found online.

I then glued them down to the canvas and painted over them.

I then wrote in the words and sealed it.

This kind of artwork is so enjoyable and satisfying.

It takes me away better than Calgon!

I have not talked about it very much on our blog, but I've had a

lifelong struggle with my weight.  I lost 100 lbs. 15 years ago!

Keeping it off has been my goal ever since!

There was even a before and after picture of me in the

newspaper at the time (1997).  It is embarrassing to share this with

you now, but we're all friends, right?

I try to eat healthy and thought I would show you

what I've been eating.

My son tells me that I eat like a bear.  He says that salmon

and berries are what bears eat. 

I eat it because it is good for me.

I also have a goal to live to be 100!

Are you health conscious?

Do you have health foods you like?

I'd love to hear your thoughts and goals too!

Have a nice Tuesday!

Love, Twyla
