What I’d love to paint

I want to paint …

the owl hooting in the moonlight with the moon glimmering on the silky soft as white as snow .

the scent of the petroleum’s petal wafting through a wonderful window .

the sound of horses hooves clopping up a homey hill as quietly as a silent whisper.

I want to paint …

the smell of coffee in the white wanted kitchen.

the touch of snow on a white cold day .

the sound of a wolf howling in the moonlight like a deep growl.

I want to paint …

the children laughing and playing in the playground.

the soft slow of my mum sneezing inside of my room.

the dads laugh chuckling in the sunset with a faint laugh in the distens.

I want to paint the end of the day.

Family

I want to paint…

the touch of my mums hand on mine.

the feel of my dogs fluffy fine fur.

the feeling of Christmas morning with my family.

I want to paint…

my family as happy as can be.

my dog as black as the night sky.

my nanny’s delicious homemade bread.

I want to paint…

the memory of Gemma, like she was right here next to me.

the memory of the first day I saw my brother.

the funny family photo I’ve always dreamed of.

the company of my mum.

I want to paint happiness.

The smell of Christmas

I want to paint-

the smell of freshly cooked Christmas dinner from the oven.

the smell of freshly baked bread from the bakers shop.

I want to paint-

the smell of a fresh engine start in the cold air to go and see family and friends.

the smell of a fresh hot chocolate witch smells like a malteaser.

I want to paint-

the smell of a freshly baked gingerbread men from the oven witch is as nice as eating biscuits with a cup of tea.

I want to paint the of feeling of being with family and friends.

Family

I want to paint…

the taste of my Nan’s roast dinners like the best present on Christmas morning,

the taste of sausage sandwiches for breakfast there like  best taste ever .

i want to paint…

the memory of my friends together as we get closer by the minute,

the memory of my family at Cornwall sitting on the beach in the summers sun

the memory of baking with my Nan the beautiful baked cakes are the best .

I want to paint …

my cat sleeping in my bed like a silent angel ,

the feel of butterflies landing on my hand like a tickle running down my arm .

I want to paint myself at home .
