Just like moons and like suns..still I'll rise

Just painted this journal page for my friend in Denmark during a storm..loved the thunder and lightning.  The painting is all about being strong in the realm of adversity and so it has part of the famous poem by Maya Angelou

Happy Paint Party Friday
Continuing with my Christmas card making made this quick card before for less is more challenge...all my cards this year are going to be white with blue sequins I think

I love the thunder too, even those that rattle the windows. May be startling but afterward you can laugh. Those are very nice drawings.
