Home or away, eye masks are a luxury one can't afford to not have! After a late night, gentle pressure from the mask is beyond soothing for aching eyes. For a quick midday meditation, eye masks help you relax and truly breathe in the present, especially with a drop of peppermint or lilac oils. For travel, long flights and train rides, eye masks are a MUST. There are so many simple solutions that we can do every day to live healthier lives, but how often do we make the time for them? If we're honest, sleep is always on the top of that list. So grab a mask and get some rest!
ABOUT THE PAINTING:
DAYDREAMER: Acrylic on canvas, 1 x 1 FT.
As a kid, in the late 80’s a boy band from the mid ’60, The Monkees, had a resurgence in pop culture. And, randomly, several of us young preteens and barely there teens fell in love with the shadows of some old guys touring the country and releasing biographies. Still, today, if ever a song from their TV show or any of their albums come on, I don’t even realize half the time but immediately I start singing… I will always carry that little gal with braces and a shy smile in my heart. I suppose that explains a little of this piece but, more so, let us that know the song sing along:
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean, oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?
My hope is that this piece helps the viewer reflect on halcyon days and take a moment to just breathe and engage the child within us all.
