A Long Day for Whom?

The sun came out and shone down through the skylight at the United Church this afternoon, letting us know that Mary was anxious for happy hour to begin.  Last week we lost a cherished friend and fellow artist, Mary Letham.  Nearly 91 years of age, she had spark and wit right up until the end.  We enjoyed her company so much, and will miss her terribly.  I'm not sure how to progress with the exhibition her and I planned for next year.  It is to be 50 of her smallest works, watercolours of the landscape.  We had a great time cropping and matting, getting inspired and telling stories.  That is, after all, the artist's purpose, to tell a good story.  Once I'm finished wiping my tears, I'll continue planning this exhibition, knowing that I'll be sharing one aspect of Mary's story.
