So... I cheated. :) this picture isn't from today. I ran a four mile race today, and walked off without my camera in the whirl of "do I have my meter/shot bloks/car keys/ ridiculous fanny pack to carry them all in?" So this picture is in the same spirit of what i wanted to capture tonight.
This picture is actually from last year's Boston half-marathon (not the full - and no, you don't have to qualify. thank god. :) ) This was my 3rd half marathon, and I ran it with my dad (far right). My Dad turned 60 last year and decided that the way to celebrate was to run his first half marathon. And he SMOKED me. (I can always fall back on the excuse that running and checking your blood sugar at the same time considerably slows you down.) Anyway, this was pre-race - we all still look happy..:) and I have my most annoying but necessary piece of running equipment - my oh so chic fanny pack, that is just big enough to fit my smallest meter, a pack of strips, my poker, and some shot bloks. It's actually made with diabetes in mind, because there is a hidden pocket in the back to stash your pump so it's not bouncing around while you're running - which is really nice.
Anyway, I guess my point to this rambling description is just to note that i inherited some stubborness and perserverance from my dad. He wouldn't let age keep him from accomplishing something on his "bucket list", and I wouldn't let diabetes.
I'm finding this really interesting. I think I am learning a lot about my process. This was a painting that I hated. I remembered what Betsy Dillard Stroud said about a bad painting is just one that isn't done yet. I pushed and pushed through this.... it has about 10 layers of acrylic on it.... I still don't think I really like it, but it got to be an exercise in perserverance. It has also been weird working without the whole thumbnail, color sketch planning process. I feel really strange without that kind of planning. I hope this will serve to get me painting, and then I will return to my planning process where I'm "safer". Right now I am trying to paint like a kid.....,just paint. I find that I really look forward to working it into my day. It's not a burden, it's a pleasure....YAY!
This is from another excursion in Juneau. We hiked the Perserverance Trail. At its head is this mine shaft. It blows out a refreshing jet of 42 degree air.
I took this in the garden at home.Note the tiny silver spider on the bee's face.I love my macro lens.There was a slight breeze blowing while I photographed this which made it very difficult to get a clear capture,but in the end my perserverance paid off.
First I imported all three pictures. I re-sized them and arranged them in order. Next I made the outer images black and white and used changed the color/brightness. Then I feathered the middle image and change the opacity to make the other images slightly show through. Next I added PERSEVERANCE using the text tool and changed the font and color to yellow. I also gave it a outer shadow and a black stroke. Last I added the definition and matched the font, color, and stroke.

Stepped outside this morning, it's cold, and saw these leaves on the quince bush still clinging after 2 heavy snowfalls. I hope to have that same strength and perserverance in 2011.
