Hard to show how it changes as one turns it and light goes through it, making clear turn black, and texture jump and get translated. It was a fun experiment, fer sure. And, this I know too:<br /><br />Life is good when you're around.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-26293873728936572972011-06-16T11:55:50.026-07:002011-06-16T11:55:50.026-07:00Hey ma!

Let's hope the world is kind as well.<br /><br />He really got me started on the clouds too. When he was a child of six and onward, we started looking up--and "finding our way to the roof."<br /><br />I know your boys will rise up too!<br /><br />Best wishes with your painting.<br /><br />Virtual hugs--MMelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-21089013827368318042011-06-13T22:09:00.418-07:002011-06-13T22:09:00.418-07:00Hi Melinda,

He will be a blessing to the world like his mother and father before him. How could he not? After watching his videos about clouds in Iceland and Tucson I feel connected by humour to this young man, who along with you, changed my views about clouds forever.<br /><br />Much love to all of you,<br /><br />BarbaraBarbara Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342757136485853833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-19729181349134368572011-06-12T18:34:56.153-07:002011-06-12T18:34:56.153-07:00Hello, dear Marcia.
