Clowning around! 8 x 8 gouache on black
Blue background or not! ...Not - but it's too late now. I'm enjoying exploring my glitter paint - and it takes practice like anything to master - I will preserve. The site I purchased the paint from has tutorials - mostly including betta Fish -which I'll attempt but first I just wanted to play. Sometimes I paint the background and think: I should have left it as is.
New material/supplies are like fuel for creativity! In this case new paint but it can be anything.. usually I'm just restocking my paint but every now & then I'll try something new. I have clay I purchased but still not prepared to open, I have to make sure it's a day when my hands are feeling fantastic (fantastic is pushing it but you know what I mean). The Clown Fish below has a lot of metallic paint but you hardly notice, no matter as it will make the art all the more enjoyable to be seen in person. Today, I celebrated another year - here on this planet. What an incredible 60 years it's been.
The lessons I've learned - we've all learned, give thanks for every one! I've lost enough people in my life to understand how easily one day can change everything - so be grateful for each human, especially those who continue to grace us with their presence decade after decade - I know a few! Thank YOU!
My son took me on an adventure - a day out to explore, eat - pick up some art supplies and just wander, we had several laughs and it was an enjoyable day all around... until I got home & the girls let me know they missed me & clung to my side all evening.
60 & my strongest relationship is with God & Jesus! YAY! I communicate with God daily & give thanks constantly, without even thinking about it.. it comes naturally - as it should. I couldn't think of anywhere else (at this point in my life) that I'd rather be mentally, emotionally, spiritually ... so I guess it's all going according to Gods plan. What's in my future? What ever I want! All things are possible with God- took me 60 years to KNOW this. Storm asked if I had any new goals' as a matter of fact I do: To serve, to be who God expects me to be, to actively seek joy in all & appreciate it daily, to paint more & share & continue to inspire others to be creative. To let others know I think of them and appreciate them & am blessed for them in my/our lives. To not worry about tomorrow but focus on the gift of TODAY.
Other than that - it's just another day, marking another year & I'm happy to still be here'.
Give thanks for every day.
Next Oh Canada or: Hahaha-waaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
