"Happy Flowers" - Work by Norell Gudaitis

"I am in my 80's and I'm feeling 30! I am so very happy that I'm feeling so good! I'm moved by the spirit within, I have to paint on my lap so I'm connected; otherwise, I can't do it. I use objects from nature to paint with: pine needles, blades of grass , dandelion blooms, rosebuds and grapevines, depending on how the spirit moves me.

Painting soothes my soul and keeps me young. And, when someone tells me they feel something, that they feel the spirit or are moved by my painting, it's the nicest compliment."
