Domestic Violence Painting

Today I finished painting a canvas art painting for a benefit for Noble House. This is an organization that assists women who are in a domestic violence situation. Leaving someone who is abusive is hard. I know because my ex husband was verbally abusive. The scars are on the inside which makes it hard to see. Painting can be therapeutic. I think we often don't think of ourselves as an artist, but we all have the ability to pick up a paint brush and paint. Painting your inner self doesn't have to fall between certain lines, its just you. Abstract paintings are some of my favorite. Go out and pick up a brush, paint and a canvas and paint who you are. You might be surprised that you like it.
