Magical MondayHop, Summer Colors, Creative Everyday


WIP ~ for Summer Colors



Welcome to our blog where I view life from the eyes of an artist's soul and with my assistant explore how creativity enhances the inner spirit.


This post is for Monday and today we have our own blog hop Magical Monday Meme for creative people of all mediums. We believe that there are many ways to be creative and support all mediums from crafts, photography, art, sketches, knitting/crocheting, creative decor and more. Hoping you will join and expand the knowledge of creative expression so good for the soul. The above photo is a collage done with the color theme suggested of ice cream flavors. The other photo of a painting is for the same theme for Summer Colors.

We are also sharing links with two very creative blogs:

Summer Colors
and
Creative Everyday
Another WIP ~ Asian Style Brush Painting

We hope you enjoy the variety of creativity shown here and on the blogs we are linked to and find your inner spirit enhanced.

Wishing you a wonderfully creative and healthy week.

Hugs and namaste,

and




We love to have you post your comments, thoughts or questions to delight us all in the day ~ especially, ArtMuse Dog ^_^

    I love both you pieces, but the first really speaks to me. Did you make the paper/fibers yourself? However you did it, it is VERY cool!

    I just love the way you used what I assume are homemade papers for your piece - it's so beautiful and the colors are dreamy.
