My really white leg. Hopefully being down on the beach in Florida will help give me some color. (at Panama City Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNAy4xXnjRe/?igshid=150hho0habet8

Reading by the Shore (c.1883-1885). Charles Sprague Pearce (American, 1851-1914). Oil on canvas.

The work combines a brilliant light and free handling of paint with a tightly rendered fashion portrait of Antonia [the artist’s wife]. Pearce’s palette is an electrifying range of colors, with the tonal range of the background liberated from the conventions of knowledge, treated with little regard to local color, such as the pink sand beach with its lilac shadows.

Childe Hassam (American, 1859-1935), New York Street Scene, 1900. Oil on canvas, 24 x 20 in.

35 Powerful Affirmations That Can Change Your Life

Life extends from the thoughts and emotions that you experience. This means that employing affirmations of positive words can have a powerful effect on how you feel and help boost you to new levels of achievement.

Affirmations are proven methods of self-improvement because of their ability to rewire our brains. Much like exercise, they raise the level of feel-good hormones and push our brains to form new clusters of “positive thought” neurons. In the sequence of thought-speech-action, affirmations play an integral role by breaking patterns of negative thoughts, negative speech, and, in turn, negative actions.

Repeat the below aloud and with conviction in the morning and after a few days you will notice the shift in your mood, perception, and interpretation of any given situation.
