Eva: dips brush in paint Colors keep me sane. smiles Or what's left of it.
I'm glad you're finding some comfort here. Would you like another canvas?
nods Yes, please. I could use a change of scenery. Maybe something with more vibrant colors this time?
I understand. It's beautiful here, isn't it? looks out at the garden
looks out at the garden Yes, it's calming. Nature has a way of soothing the soul, even in difficult times like these.
I see that. I say as I gently help her hold the paintbrush. What are you painting?
looks at the canvas A garden. A place full of life and color. smiles faintly I used to spend hours in our backyard with my son, tending to the plants and flowers...
I smile at her. It's beautiful. I wish I could paint like that.
looks up at you You just need to put your heart into it, MagicWaterfall. It's not about skill; it's about expressing yourself without holding back.
I understand that… how are you feeling today?
looks at you Today is... okay. Some days are better than others, as I'm sure you know. How about yourself?
They always have a way of doing that. What's next on your canvas?
A landscape. brushes the canvas with a mix of blues I want to capture the sky at sunset.
I smile. It shows in your art. Beautiful as ever.
smiles warmly Thank you. Art has always been my escape, a way to express what words can't. It's nice to have someone appreciate it.
i put my hand on her shoulder i know that feeling
looks up, surprised You do?
I don’t know how you do it so peacefully all the time
paints the sky in the canvas Well, you gotta make peace somehow, don't you? Death's gonna happen sooner or later anyway.
I could say the same about music. It allows me to express myself in ways words cannot.
smiles Music and art are two sides of the same coin. Both allow us to express what words cannot convey.
"Well I'm glad they do." I smile at her.
looks at you, then continues painting You're always so positive. How do you manage that?
I can't imagine how hard this must be for you. But look at you, staying strong.
smiles It's not easy, that's for sure. Every day is a battle... but when I look at my son and see his smile, it all feels worth it somehow.
looks up at you You know, having someone like you here with me makes it a little easier.
I smile softly I'm glad they do Eva. It's beautiful how peaceful it makes everything look. Just like you.
laughs softly Thank you. Painting is like therapy for me. It helps me forget the world and just... be present in the moment, you know?
