Owed it to myself to have a much needed art day…
Owed it to some friends to complete some projects I had committed to…
I wanted and needed to have some ART LOVE flowing.
And I had a feeling that the best way to “Be OK” was to create the day away…
Cranked the tunes – even found a sound track !
Finally completed a prayer flag for a dear friend who is healing from surgery…
I guess it is never too late to send some love, right ?
Finished a Mail Sketch project that should have been passed on long ago…
Like months…
I am hoping that the extra effort I put in to jazz up the envelope
as well an added little giftie inside will help me be forgiven for my procrastination.
If not, that is okay too.
Time to let it go…
I have said for many many years that having a paint brush in my hand is the cheapest and most effective therapy there is for me.
Using my creativity, losing myself in my art, finding ways to put my heart out into the world through what I create…
That is one way I know that I can always BE OK.
For me, Art is LOVE,
and
we all know, Beautiful Ones, that
Happy Tuesday !
(This post was inspired by the beautiful visually rich post on Alisa Burke’s blog yesterday. She is an awesome artist that inspires me in so many ways ! Talk about your eye candy !)

love always conquers fear....great piece! and oh how much I love seeing you and that amazing paint pallette.....I wanna touch it!
I would love to just sit in the room and watch you work. inspiring.
Great post and I love your pics! The pieces you have completed are awesome.
I know how you feel about "commitments". Sometimes we just can't live up to them art wise and we feel so overwhelmed and bad about it. So "Be Ok" is a wonderful mantra! And you will be!!

I don't have much to add, except to join in and say I loved this post too, and am inspired by it. I needed this today. So much beauty, Kim, Love, O
The prayer flag is wonderful, what a thoughtful gift for someone recovering. Alisa Burke is quite amazing, I agree. Great inspiration as always, here too! xox corrine
You are adorably cute! I love the last picture of the rock and the bubble wrap. simple, but beautifully pleasing to my eyes.
