Lola says that the only way to resolve the inevitable build up of daily stress levels is to have a postprandial power nap every afternoon.
“Preferably under a palm tree,” she adds sagely.

Lola is a smart lady - another beautiful work of art, Tessa!
Aah, the colours! Making me homesick for Africa! And a daily nap under a palm tree - what an ideal suggestion! I wish I could grow palm trees here, but last night we had -12 °C...
It's cold here in Paris too, but your wonderful painting warms me up:)

lovely one, really nice work! very colourful to! I like it!
I'm all over this! It's so true, we should nap more. I really love your bold colors.
Yes, indeed.
This sounds like a perfect recipe for bliss.......
If only I could take such a nap!
I have been implementing "6-Second Stress Relief" -- put on a sparkling smile, take a deep breath through your feet, relax your shoulders, face and tongue, and give yourself an affirmation, like, "things are going to turn out all right!" It sort of works.
Fantastic illustration! I love the colors and composition and simplicity. And thanks for the great comments your left for my illustration on resolve. Means a lot!
i love lola.
SO glad to see you back tessa dear :)

I really like the way you use colors!
beautiful, bright bold and colourful. love your style
Woot Woot... Glad your back.
Now where can I find a palm tree?
Love Renee
very nice. love your style.
I totally agree with Lola! Much wisdom are in these words. This is just more of your fantastic work! Are you thinking of doing a story book? Your pictures speak so loud and clear! This is simply beautiful!
I like that idea. Wonderful use of color! I really get a sense of the warmth and relaxation.
Really vibrant colours. We both seem to like that approach.
Sorry I have been silent for so long - was away on the west coast for a family wedding.
Positively Perfect and Pretty :)
Happy New Year pal, valgal xo

lola is a perfect example of sensibility! lovely tessa.
mmmm yes- I want to go there- sit beside her and snooze...warmth of the day warmth of the ample colourful woman - mmmmm yes...
Sage advice from Lola indeed and well illustrated by your colorful painting. I love how your blog reveals the story behind the image. Today it is raining ice, our trees are bare and I feel like hibernating. Happy Creative New Year!
I know people that swear by a 10-20 power nap every afternoon and apparently it works...not sure it means they actually sleep though!!
Stunning work! Love your colors.
Lola is absolutely right!
Gorgeous picture, Tessa!
Lola is a smart lady… beautiful work… happy new year

The colors! beautiful!
Whatever Lola says, I do. Now if I could only find a palm....
Truly fantastic paintings you have here! I love the vibrant colors and the energy. Just beautiful.
I agree with Lola! Power Naps is all it takes.
