She Exudes Radiance

Sharpie art...Check! Water color...Check! Colored pencils and acrylics...Check! Oil pastels...What are they?!?! I had no idea,  until my friend gave me a set for Christmas.

Oh the beauty in blended glorious colors!!! Oil pastels take the fear out of art!! You can let go of perfection and easily meld colors and add shading without abrupt stops and starts.  I am in love with this new find and can not wait to experiment more.

Set yourself free and start blending colors!!! :)

Not So Intimidating

When I began letting the creativity in my head meet paper, I started on index cards. Something about the small 3x5 platform didn't intimidate me as much as a canvas or even a large sketchbook.  The only media I had ever used to create art was Sharpies, but I found my pieces to be lacking depth...


Random Flowers


Abstract Squares


Just a Girl


Don't let intimidation stop you from letting the creativity inside come out.  Start small if you need to.  Doodle on the corner of your meeting agenda (bosses love that!!) or use index cards as I did.  You might surprise yourself!
