I admit rest is not easy to illustrate, for me. I suppose a peaceful scene would promote rest, but I'm wanting other ways to show rest. Here, in this painting, we see my husband's knee as he is sitting outside at our firepit a while ago. We went out there for a fire this past week. It was restful to not listen to news and just listen to the crackle of the flames. We did not sit in idleness for rest. Rather, we poked the logs a lot, adjusting the burn. The change in noise and activity and focus gave some rest at least for a couple of hours.

Linda I like resting around a fire pit. I remember as a child Girl Scout Camp and sitting around a fire at night . We would watch the flames tell stories and prepare for rest. This was the last activity we did before heading to our cabins.
