Thanks. Was kind of a stretch to make this be the Fifth day but I guess it works. lol

another intuitive beautiful vision from you. I love the rings of gold---both very bright and also very subdued. The yellow is stunning. And that ball on the table is like an added gift, plus round shapes everywhere. Intimate, warm and beautiful.
(Ok I hope this isn't boring, but maybe you'll find it inspiring...) Did you know that "The Twelve Days of Christmas"---from which "5 golden rings" comes---goes back to wishes that are centuries old? The song has roots way back...the gifts are all about sustenance and opulence during the dark winter season. I mean, maids-a-milking, geese-a-laying, French hens, etc---symbols of richness and ample food to feed your loved ones through the dark season. In fact, the first 7 gifts were all birds---which were considered rare and special in olden days. ("5 golden rings" was actually the golden ringed pheasant---something none of us ever learned! I'm not trying to diss your beautiful art (lol)! Just sharing a fascinating history. The remaining gifts were all about celebration: dancers, musicians, drummers, etc. Basically, it was a huge gathering of glorious joys to counterbalance the cold, and make the holidays gifted and radiant...Just a little background on that beautiful old song...

I didn't know about the five rings. I really missed the boat there, didn't I? lol I love the song, which we memorized as kids. Thanks for the history of the song and your entire comment.
