Expressive Flowers

New Year New Goals

It’s a new year but every day is a new day, right? I’m usually a tea drinker but lately, I’ve been drinking cafe con leche. Something in me sings it’s time for change. And in the words of Lizzo, it’s about damn time. Everything I need is right here.

I am taking these flowers and turning them into wildflower thoughts from the spirit of an expressive artist. That’s a good book title!

Viva Magenta is the Pantone Color of the Year. It’s raining right now. That means spring is going to be beautiful! I can’t wait to stroll around and film. I’ve been doing this for about three months and counting. I’m feeling warm already!

Speaking of pink flowers, my next project is roses. I have a list of subjects and post ideas to help me paint beautiful roses. Pink is friendship and maybe this book can be a self-love friendship book for the soul? I plan to release the book in the spring or summer. I will launch creative exploration with a paper collage.

Here’s to a wild and free year, and here’s to taking a moment of every day to breathe in gratitude and strength.

Siempre,

Mireya
