Inspiration Results – July 25
.
Every Monday, I post a painting “inspiration.†Every Thursday, I post how I interpreted the inspiration. I decided to do this to keep myself painting, to strengthen how I go from an idea to a painting, and to give myself permission to play and try new things.
This week’s inspiration was GOODNESS.
As usual, I didn’t finish this one, but you can get a feel for how she’ll look in the end. I plan to keep her simple, so I’ll probably just add a little finishing to her face.
How to be HAPPY!
Every Thursday, Jay of The Depp Effect, posts something that makes her happy, and I’m playing along. She encourages us to look around and notice the things that make us happy. I enjoy this challenge because it makes me consider the things that make me happy, but are easily overlooked. It’s a wonderful exercise in attention and gratitude. Please grab the badge and join in.
Here’s something that makes me happy…CANDLES.
I love all manner of candles and “scents,” but my absolute favorite is a scented wax candle. The fragrance and the flickering light seem both elegant and homey. Candles have an extravagant feel to me, and that makes me happy.
Love the background. We love candles too. Have a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly
Lovely painting.
I like candles as well, although don’t often burn them.
Thats a great shot of all the candles and I like the picture of the short haired girl, very nice
urban hounds
I really love the colors you chose for Miss Goodness!
I’m a Scentsy addict! lol
I like candles too. I haven’t really burned any since we have gotten the dogs. Maybe I will change that. I love your painting. The flowers are really pretty.
What are you doing with all your paintings? Do you hang them all?
Right now, I have my paintings hanging and in piles in my craft room. One day soon, I hope to start selling them.
I love the flowers in that painting. Reminds me of Japan. Have a great day.
Great colours on the background Lori. Yes candles go down well here too. x
That was a good question—what are you going to do with all your paintings??? My Mother gave hers away.
One day, I’d love to sell them. I’m building up my inventory for now.
