My Favourite Quote

Blog prompt #9

Who was the quote by? Does the quote make you smile? reflect on life? Get you crafting mojo going?

My favourite quote is from Thomas Kinkade - the Painter of Light - 


It really is possible to colour a dark canvas golden, even with the tiniest of brushes. You just keep on dabbing the paint, and sooner or later you transform the surface with brightness. In the same way, if you keep on making joy choices, small and large, your heart will eventually display a joyful tint that is more durable than you ever imagined. 


I use the Joanna Sheen Thomas Kinkade CDs which are full of his wonderful paintings.  Three Christmas cards I made with them are these. 





I was saddened to hear of his death on 6 April 2012.
