The Trip That Failed – Travels and Painting

So I went to Berlin, intending to paint every day.  Instead, I ended up relapsing into the infection that I had before – apparently the antibiotics didn’t work.  At about 30 days of constant sickness, I ended up going to the doctor in Germany, who tried another antibiotic.  So I spent most of the trip simply sleeping/laying down/resting and bone tired, the kind of lethargy only a body wide infection could cause.  Imagine having the flu for 30 days – this is how I felt!  Not to mention the 13 hour flights, the layovers, and jet lag.  So far, I am at least coughing less.

So I’m back, now I can paint again because I can suffer in my own home.  I couldn’t find anything to paint and my wonderful other half suggested I paint this vase – problematically, the light kept moving across it but hey – at least it’s painting!
