This weeks Sunday inspiration is all about taking risks, about being uncomfortable and stepping outside of the box.
I was inspired by this quote “what single brave decision do you need to make today?”
I love it because it broke down this huge unbearable thing of being brave into one single act. One single decision, not a million not a huge endeavor, but one single thing. When said that way being brave doesn’t seem so scary.
So I illustrated the meaning and the story of this piece by being brave with bold colors and unusual patterns together.
I share more about it in the video. Enjoy!

I have noticed in your videos that the stencils have a little black clip\hook on them. How do you store your stencils?
Deborah, I will be doing a quick video on how I store my stencils. coming next week. But, have a custom-built stencil holder and put clips on my stencils and hang them.
Tried to clink into the “more information” regarding the Art Bundle and received site that said it was unavailable. Just an fyi for you.
