This image and the title just won't get out of my head. I am currently having shaky issues with my right hand. So far, not affecting the drawing, but annoying. Inside our ageing bodies, we have the same vision and souls we have always had. May your incandescent soul always shine--every time I encounter one of your thoughtful pieces I feel like a beam of light shot through me.

VIVA Anderson replied:

Dear Marsha, soul sister, I am so deeply touched and affirmed by your beautiful, thoughtful response to 'our' shared 'issue' re Art, and !, completely uplifted ! I will shine my light all the more because I am aglow with inner joy immeasurable, thanks to YOU ..oh, my ! How beautiful is life ! You! light up my life! Thank you, thank you, :))VIVA🙏💓

I'm drawn to this beautiful drawing by you, Viva! All of your drawings show a wonderful feeling of being free, flowing. It's a fantastic drawing & impressionist enough to allow the viewer to create their own story. Rolled paper with top folds to form a bouquet? A rawhide chew softening & unfolding by the constant work of a dog? Or an artistic religious symbol. Absolutely entertaining wonderful work! LOVE!

VIVA Anderson replied:

Carlin, Thank You very much for your deeply thoughtful comment, deeply appreciated, 🙏❤️ VIVA
