By Carrie Jacobson

It was nearly three weeks ago that I made a painting – that’s the longest I’ve gone without painting in my admittedly short but very full painting career.

And why? Lyme disease knocked me flat.

So when I finally had the energy and strength to go out and paint, I had to wonder whether I’d be able to. After all, painting came as a gift, unbidden and unexpected – and maybe it will go that way, too.

I needn’t have worried. My eyes, my ideas, my hands, they all worked as well or better than they had before the hiatus.

And I remain grateful.
