New painting area

I am lucky enough to have a wonderful life in the NW.  I have found that with too much stimulus for the eye and brain it is very difficult to focus on what I'm feeling.  I really enjoy the feelings of creation and art.  When we were kids we would have fun wonderful ideas and everyone would say oh how cute , such an imagination.  Now as an adult we have a full brain of all the daily things we need and have to do, called life.  Sometimes we need a space just to be and let all our ideas flow, to relax , to meditate , just be.  

Well I was able to make that space for my self, I painted walls, moved furniture and took down curtains.  This space is open, uncluttered and lots of natural light.  I love love love it.  I put plastic on the floor and covered that with canvas so paint can spill and no damage only wonderful color.  I covered the walls so I can write and throw paint at will.  A very happy place,,no fear!!
These 3 paintings were older pieces I really didn't like.  I needed to paint over them.  They have wonderful texture and color popping through.  I have done this several times and it is like setting something free.
