I shall endeavor to learn at some point.... for now I suppose it is still a little bit of a sore point for me as we lost our mom quite recently. She was an artist and an art teacher and I am not quite ready to delve into that arena...

I am So sorry for your loss. At some point painting with oils will be a way for you to reconnect to her spirit and passion and love for her work.

Thank you! And yes, I believe you are right!
