This update of the 11 x 13 large landscape format book, with one painting added from the June version, shows a selection of paintings by Mary Aslin completed in 2012, the title a reflection of the results of our labors when the work of hands is paired with the inspiration of heart. Included are stories of how some of these paintings came to be, as well as a few works in progress and life drawing sketches. It was a year rich with joyful inspiration, and I am honored to share it with you.
