#4 : Attend. Inspired by my Pohutukuawa in my Year of Rumi spread (see previous post), some yummy new art supplies, and Effy's PDF about paying attention to the things that matter to me. Art is helping me navigate some difficult territory this month. I find that the process of art journaling engages my brain in a way that takes me out of my day and provides stress relief, new discoveries, escape, and joy. The trick (for me) is to just start with no expectations - to just try and enjoy the process for its own sake, and suddenly I'm in the zone. The card already had gesso applied before a layer of new lovely Magical colour sprinkled with salt for texture whilst still wet
Love this.
ReplyDeleteMe too! Thanks ♥
DeleteMagnificent work with those tiny beads! So glad to see that you're creating to heart's content, Lynette! I fell off the wagon as I felt I needed a little break. I can see I have a lot to catch up on - I only glimpsed at some of your projects on social media. Hope, you're well, thinking of you even though I haven't been around much xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Zuszsa. I am losing myself in creative projects. Glad you've had a break. I often have low productivity in winter too. I feel very lucky to have this joy in my life.
