In every breeze, sun warmth, butterfly flutter and a bird’s song is the answer, the hug, the right comfort we seek. ALWAYS!
Nature is always true.

Live your love story
Why?
You will come across naysayers and circumstances that want you to fail. Persist. Persevere. Yes, I wrote these words for me too.
One afternoon I was dreaming in the sun. I wote this story down. Was it it a pink pen and composition book? There have been many versions since then.
The art print is the first $12 I earned. It was a great letter but the typography was terrible, Yet someone on etsy purcahsed it. I have been writing ever since.

Tracing Butterflies +Watercolor
Ever watch Butterflies, how they flutter from flower to flower? Sometimes I watch them with the sun. I too should flutter more often. Flutter from idea to idea. Flutter from one negative thought to a peaceful one. Flutter from place to place. My mind often does.
This butterfly still needs antenna and a few spots on the body of the Butterfly. The right side was painted first. The tracing and tutorial called for black ink but I didn’t want the exact pattern and blue seemed like the way to go. My confidence was good. Then it got lost. The left side looks a lot thicker and a few of the lines are a bit of a mess.
What’s the real difference between the right and the left wing? In the right wing I was fluttering in the process. Good place to be.
FLUTTER IN THE pROCESS
Enough about the Butterfly. I will paint another layer and see how I can make this work. It already has because I did write this post. This week I have a few more flowers to paint. I want to do a culture inspired project.
Barn Owl Take 5?
Last night I gave my pastels a try.
I liked both for various reasons. The one I signed, now that’s the bird with attitude. I painted and was about to go down the road of try this and try that but I stopped just in time. I found the perfect words.
What a beautiful owl for a beautiful thought. Powerful wings? I am painting an Eagle!
