52 WEEKS::Across Continents

So, here we are...another year and another 52 WEEKS project.  First of all, I am loving the juicy textures created by mixing Gamblin Cold Wax Medium with Winsor & Newton oils, and working with a palette knife is definitely a new experience for me.  As for the titles of this year's project, I am following the book titled '50 Truths Worth Knowing' and will complete the last two with truths picked up along the way.  This is quite a year for me as I will be celebrating my 52nd birthday so I am extremely glad that I have chosen to continue this 52 WEEKS project for a sixth year.  

The title of this piece is especially poignant as my husband and I will also be celebrating our 30th Anniversary this year and our courtship began, not across continents but across the prairies and endured through a couple of occasions where we were separated by many, many miles.  Through the hard times I have learned that love and the feeling of togetherness can continues to exist and grow through times of separation with dedication and commitment to one another.
