And the neutral grays and blacks in the framing set it off perfectly.

Appreciate the encouragement more than I can say.
Some days I don't want to get out of bed. The fatigue I have with MS feels crippling so often. But the pretty pastel sticks waiting for me give me a reason to want to get up each day. I just want to get up to have fun coloring, LOL.
