Some Days are Better than Others

This is a mixed media painting that I have used a print from an original painting and then added to it with collaged paper and acrylic paint.

At the time I painted the original, I was feeling pretty overwhelmed with trying to balance life, my family, keeping up the house, cooking the meals and my work. The paintings title is "Juggling Life, Some Days are Better Than Others".

You might notice that the girl in the painting is not really juggling anything and everything seems to be falling on her head! In fact, she looks like she is protecting her head.

I think we all have days like that. I would never trade them because it makes the 'better' days more sweeter. No matter how your juggling skills are, if you look for the blessings, they are there everyday and juggling life becomes a pretty good thing.
