Henrik! You’ve made such a personal reflection universal. As I read along, I quickly traced a parallel path happening in my own life, which made the ending all the more powerful.

A third chair? Wow!, I thought. You mean I’ll get what I’m working so hard to achieve and then there will be more? Ok, I’m in. Back to the grind stone!

What are you working on now—painting?

Btw, J and I think it is hilarious that you and Tom always comments on the same posts.

Commenting on the same posts while sitting across from each other in front of the fire… that’s how Tom and I start most days.

At the moment I am hip deep in an apprenticeship to develop my skills for naturalistic art. I draw and draw and draw alone in a little 10x10 room, with visions of what I’ll do with my skills once I develop them dancing in my head. When I move on to painting, I’ll be sitting in the second chair. What my third chair will be, I have no idea, yet.
