A Painting...
At work, the other guys were cleaning out lockers and this is one of the paintings they came across. I talk about lions all the time, I watch YouTube clips with lions, lion cubs, and anything that has a lion in it. Lions are by far my favorite animal. This ought to be obvious with the background I chose for my site, the few posts I've wrote about lions, and verses in poetry that referenced lions in them (One of my posts about my love for lions-- http://ctaretz.xanga.com/755825319/why-i-love-lions/).
This painting depicts a lion up in a tree, and from how it looks, having a catnap. It was painted in 1977 and it was signed by the artist. It is a great addition to the bare walls that have been haunting me for so long. Now I get to wake up and see a lion right here in my apartment. And because of this painting I'm encouraged to fill up my bare walls even more with more artwork. Artwork that will help me start my day out with positivity the minute I open my eyes and look around.
It's time to be proactive in putting joy back into my life. No more empty spaces for me to jump into and hide--scared that I might just have a great day, taking me out of my comfort zone.
It's time to turn that frown upside down...

@ctaretz - Maybe you could look into the history of the painting? I'd love to hear more!! xx
@CharleiMaria - This is correct, it's actually an interesting story. I'm not sure what the reasons for this painting being in the storage locker but, it was left in there with the plastic still on it. So I don't know if this person passed away, or moved and forgot about it, or what... I just know that the locker had to be emptied and I had the opportunity to take it home with me... I love it!
Very up lifting. When I wake up, the first thing I usually see is a dead hooker.
nice!!
That is really awesome and I am glad it has inspired you for the better. I found this site and I thought you might like it. <3
A brilliant example of "another man's trash is another man's treasure!"
So glad to see you're inspired by it to fill your life with art xx
