Michael!!!! I am so happy to see you picking up your art again! You were the one that inspired me to get my acrylics back out again! You should really do a you tube on your process. A lot of artists do you tubes!

Florian makes a good boss...made you get into the corners when you were doing the cleaning. Good to see you giving the chateau some TLC, you are so lucky to live there all on your own. Florian is so entertaining, I love seeing him on the vlogs. The art project is intriguing, hope you can tell us about it soon.

Florian you are such a kind man. Love your sweet spirit. So sweet of you to help Michael like you do. Nice job Michael standing on that beautiful table to change the chandelier bulb. I’ve never seen anything like that before. That would have scared me to death. You are so talented in so many ways. Nice of you to mention Stephanie again. She truly is living her best life. Nice to see Billy again. I love his vlogs so much. Especially when your Dad and Ernest are in them. He has great plans for the Chateau’s Kitchen. Sounds very exciting. Just really enjoy seeing you surrounded by the people who love you. Never forget how very talented and loved you are and that we are very proud of you. So many people just adore you. You know what … Just between me and you … You are a creator … Meant to paint … Teach … Lean into it … The world needs you to create. I sort of think it feeds your soul, as well as, ours.

Florian so endearing. I just want to adopt him! And I like his new shirt!🤩. Michael what a wonderful place to be able to have so close to you for art supplies! I wish we had one of those! Yes Winsor & Newton is my favorite paint. I believe it is one of the highest qualities out there. However I’m looking for alcohol water colors. A friend of mine is just raving over them. They’re very vivid. So for florals It really makes them pop. I love love love the new backlight! You’ll have to let us know how you like it.

[@shirleybishop4882]

I want to see more of your artwork. You are so talented.
