Hello My Beautiful People! Welcome back! This has been an interesting week.. Los Angeles is having several large wildfires and one of them has come fairly close to our home, about 2 miles away. The Palisades Fire has come all the way up from Pacific Palisades and it almost at the top of a mountain range behind our home. We have had a "front row seat" to watch the heroic efforts of fire fighters as they work hard to keep the fire from crossing over the top of the mountain. Last night we watched a controlled burn of that mountain until about 3 am. It was terrifying to see huge billowing clouds of smoke against a neon red sky, complete with bright flames popping up here and there. The fire fighters will set controlled burns to get rid of fuel for the fires, in order to help stop them. We watched as several helicopters dropped water and several big jets dropped fire retardant on the mountain ridge. It must have worked because our sky is no longer red, but blue again with only a small amount of smoke clouds. We are praying for a speedy resolution and an end to these awful scary fires. Our hearts go out to all the people who have been affected by these fires. We have not gotten evacuation notices yet, but we have bags packed and waiting by our front door should we need to leave quickly. I want to reassure you all that we are 100% fine, and to please try not to worry. Thank you to everyone who has reached out and checked on us, we appreciate all of you so much.
This has been going on for the last four days and I will admit it is hard to not get scared. The other night HoA suggested that I go mix up some paint to give my brain something else to think about. This is that pour, my Moment of Grace. I hope you all can find a few moments of calm and grace too. Together we will stand strong and get thru this trying time. Thank you for being here.
Update: the smoke and billowy clouds are nearly gone tonight! Im so grateful to see clear skies again!

Thank God you and your family are safe! I pray the devastating fires are contained and extinguished soon. So many people displaced and losing everything they have. So very sad! This painting turned out so beautiful! Stay safe and know many are praying!
Continued good wishes for your safety and happiness. Thank you for sharing your talent each time, but especially when stress is at a peak. Blessings to you all.
Thank you so much for the update, I have been thinking and wondering where you are in all of this. Please stay safe and I pray the fire has been controlled from reaching you. My heart is so heavy as once again we are watching from afar, helpless and sadness weighing down our hearts for all the people this is affecting. Hold each other close and get comfort from your beautiful family. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for your kind thoughts, I appreciate you being here! 🙏
I am so giad/relieved that you and HOA and your family are ok. I've been searching your videos to find your most recent to know if you were ok. I checked reminder on this video cause I had to know what it's been like for you and HOA. Thank you for doing this show and sharing what it's been like. I've been praying for you and will continue. Much love, hugs.
I was thinking of you, Mina. Your beautiful spirit shines bright, and I'm thankful the fire missed you. 🥰

As always, your works are exquisite!! So thankful that y’all are safe from the horrific fires & smoke! Keep painting, dear friend 🙏🏽🤗💕
Mina, this piece is stunning! I am grateful that you are safe! I pray you continue to stay safe! I have lived through two 150 mph hurricanes. Those winds are no fun!
I love how sweet and affectionate HOA is towards you!❤😊

Absolutely outstanding wandering straight pour outcome. Mina today you have realized an absolutely great composition 👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️😘
Back in 1980's I lived in the foothills of the Angeles National Forest. I know that gut wrenching feeling of seeing nothing but smoke where your house should be standing. I witnessed a red tailed plane make an incredible water drop on my house. They saved my house...thank gawd....but it broke my heart to see the surrounding devestation.. It took years to get back a fraction of the original landscape. And unfortunately this scenario is repeated every single year in California. My heart goes out to all the victims of the fires. Thank goodness you and HOA are safe!!!
So glad to hear that you are safe! Calming painting is a wonderful idea, this is beautiful!
Beautiful, meaningful painting. Beautiful family take care ❤
Great color palette. Absolutely gorgeous Mina. 😍💜🩵
It's absolutely stunning Mina! Praying for y'all❤
Thank you for the update! Praying🙏🏻
Praying for your safety! Much love to you ❤️ Beautiful painting, as always
Mina so glad you and your family are okay. 🙏🙏🙏. This is amazing. Purple is my favorite color. I will definitely continue to pray for you and your state. I can see it is breezy there, your hair is flowing with the wind. 😊😊. Teddy Bear is adorable. Gosh that fire must be so scary. 😢😢😢
Oh Mina the fires are devastating🙁💔 we live on the east coast of Canada and have no snow in mid Jan and California is burning up Global warming is real and affecting us all! We will keep praying for the fires to cease and that you and your family will be spared the devastation of these horrible fires! Much love from NB Canada!
😊 So glad you are both doing well. Beautiful as always ❤😊
Beautiful painting! I'm glad you are safe!🙏
Absolutely gorgeous, Mina!! 🤩😍🤩
What an awesome painting in this terrible time. Im going to try these colors and hope I can make a similar painting. I have been praying for you all, since the fires started. A big hug shout out to HOA for those beautiful words you uplufted Mina with. My reaction was, "aaaaaaawwwwww", with tears rolling down my face, knowing what you have been facing with your New home. Co tinued prayers.
You come up with the best color palettes. I always learn something about color when i watch your videos! ❤
Our hearts break watching the horrific fires this week. Living in AZ, we know the destructive power of wildfire on deserts and forests but this--in the cities is beyond imagination. Stay safe.
Really stunning results from this pour. The color palette is beautiful. The video of all that smoke is heartbreaking. I bet it is terrifying to be so close to the catastrophic events playing out near you.
Beautiful, peaceful. Love you Mina.
we have you in our prayers 🙏🏼❤️
An amazing piece in a chaotic place.
I like how you got rid of the straight lines it's beautiful
🤗🤗🤗 Prayers to be safe, there!!! Thank you for your efforts to share your art experience with us. I know pouring calms our minds but to record and edit requires efforts, so, be safe there, it's more important that any goods, houses anything one might lose!!!
Beautiful! So glad you all are safe!
Praise God you are safe! I have been thinking of you. I pray they get the fires out soon. ❤🙏
God bless and keep you safe.
Very lovely painting! ❤❤❤❤❤ So glad you and your family are safe! 🤗❤️🙏🙏🙏
Praise the Lord you’ve been excluded from that wild fire. It’s not easy living in fear so I send you nothing but blessings to you and those whom lost theirs casa. Stay positive because you’re an Angel sent to use. Love from a Marine in the NY area🙏🏼
Beautiful piece. We love you and are holding you all close in our hearts.
Happy to hear you guys are okay. I drove down a canyon with fires on both sides of the road back in 1978 during the last big Malibu fire. I know what you are going through. I'll keep you in my thoughts. Love the painting.
So glad to hear that you guys are ok and I pray that the flames do not reach you.
May God be with you all and keep you safe.
Beautiful painting byw🎉🎉
Thank you so much for your kind thoughts, I appreciate you being here! ❤️🙏
It is a beautiful painting. Are you going to name it , a moment of Grace?
Really gorgeous Mina❤
So glad your all ok. ❤
This is beautiful 😍
Gorgeous piece Mina!
....that moment when you look up, take a deep calming breath, smile with love, and ask, 'are you ready darling?' ...calms me everytime
Glad you are ok. 😊
Be safe ❤
So grateful Mina & HoA that you are ok. I have friends & family there and consider you a very sweet friend via youtube and you were the first person I thought of because I can't call you on the phone so I have done copious research to learn everything I can about the fires and where people are located in the zones. My heart is with you and your family❤and the fur babies.
Your painting is absolutely so needed right now by many because it is soothing and calming and the colors are rich and beautiful. The sheen is healing as it has life and sparkle and hope for things to come. The movement is beautiful as if its ' holding your hand and saying don't worry, rest your eyes within me and let me soothe you and all who are suffering" The painting dried so soft and gentle and you picked the most beautiful name. There has been so much compassion, love and grace from those going thru this it shows the humanity that humans have and offer one another in times when the spirt & soul need each other the most. I'll be keeping my eye on your area with prayers.❤
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to me. ❤️
Que Deus proteja vocês!!!🙏🙏
Sorry i missed the premier Mina. But i love this.
God's Blessings please be safe❤.My prayers are with you all
