Playing… playing is how you grow artistically and that is exactly what I have been doing lately. Doing things that are a little different from my usual and yet still keeping to what I love. Paper! Umber washes and yummy colors.

Enjoy the video.

After I shut off the camera, I added a few more dots and charcoal.

Supplies Used:

Book pages, scrap papers, mdf board

I am not afraid of the storm,

For I am learning to sail by ship.

Louisa May Alcott

Life can feel like a storm so often, and you might feel like you can’t handle another thing, but you will. Just remember in the midst of the storm that it will pass. After you rest and heal, you must choose to grow, to learn and become wiser BECAUSE OF THE STORM.  And eventually be thankful for the storm.

Surround yourself with those that get it…. get where you are and will love you in the place that your at. Those that have weathered the storms themselves. Those that will encourage you, allow you to heal, but not let you stay in the storm.

My friend, you can do this, you can do the hard stuff.

We are better together.

You are loved!
