Sunday Sketches and Post Cards from Paradise

GUESS WHO CAME TO DINNER

Welcome to our blog where we view life from the eyes of an artist soul and explore what creativity can do to enhance the inner spirit.


Today, Sunday, we are and have been exploring creativity through Asian brush painting and photography. They both seem to come from my inner spirit and nourish my inner spirit at the same time. What does that mean? It means I am becoming more of who 'I already am.' For years I spent seeking outside myself and then began to find it is all within me. The more I made time to create the stronger my inner spirit, higher Self became. It was mainly through creativity that my thirsty soul began to become centered and focused.  Then, I realized if I hadn't put creativity into my life, I and my muse would have been 'grumbling' and not happy for a good part of the time. So here we are ~ here I am.

Today I am sharing with you my creativity and exploring with Sunday Sketches and Post Cards from Paradise.   Both sites have wonderful artists, photographers who are filled with 'the spirit'. Click on the highlighted links to enjoy these wonderful artists. The above sketch ~ painting is another Asian brush painting combined with some watercolor. It is based upon simplicity and economy of brush strokes, color, and composition. Expressing more with less. I am still practicing and will be for some time.

ARTMUSE DOG 'PARADISE'



None other than (ArtMuse Dog) her 'pen name' ~ ^_^. She is as you can see in her very own 'paradise'. Yet she does share the space and we do, indeed, live in a place that is paradise. There are many other places of 'paradise' ~ Hawaii is one I can say I have been there. Where is a 'paradise' for you?

Hope you enjoy the artists' sketches and the artists' photos. Have a wonderful week ~ 


Hugs and namaste,
