You have/are achieving 2 amazing things @Angels333 Talking to Mr Angels is massive Hon - so happy you are sharing with him and you have that support ![]()
Great also that you are doing another painting. I have one that I started over a year ago that I haven't touched since - work has kind of got in the way and I have little motivation or headspace aside from that to do anymore of the painting ...I will get to it eventually - just need to have the time and be in the right headspace. Can't wait to see yours when you finish it Hon 🎨👍😁

Hey @TAB what are you muddling along with? Just three meals and resting from work last week?
Ahh @Zoe7 my last painting took me 3 years then I have started 1 that only has the outlines drawn and a splash of paint it is very complicated and with my tremor (meds) @eth knows all too well... anyway with the team or I can't manage the fine detail. So this one's a larger slightly more clumsy attempt with larger brushstrokes. It's still looking effective though so I do hope to finish it soon.
Are we allowed to post pictures of our artwork aside from our avatars? @Former-Member
Have fun painting Zoe, I did read about you description of your house being around 100years old. I can just picture you there working so hard giving your house a fresh new look.

Yes @TAB Mr Angels is full time worker on just near the eligible amount for job seeker. We can't get any govt assistance. We have a mortgage though that we can't pay.... our house is nothing flash though older ex housing commission no where near the flashy suburbs. It's a massive headache trying to put food on the table for 5 adults....

Thank you for tagging me in your post @Angels333 . What an amazing step forward Angels being able to talk to Mr Agels about Your SH and MH. Your very lucky to have that kind of support.
SH is a very real and daily struggle for me at the moment. One I haven't been able to overcome.
painting sound like a great way to stay active and distracted. Looking forward to seeing the finish product.

I am sure your larger painting will be amazing @Angels333 and I hope you are able to do a little more of your 3 year old one soon too. I get how hard that would be though with the hand tremors - not at all ideal for fine detail. ![]()
It has been a lot longer project doing by loungeroom than I expected but I am on the downhill run now so at least it will be done before I go back to work 👍
