I was close to giving up. I uttered the words,” I’m not good at painting roses. Forget about roses. Paint other flowers and move on. Then I got out my brushes and magenta paint. I tested out a flat brush. I tested out a filbert brush. I practiced eyebrow strokes. I painted a few of my favorite flowers. It was beautiful!
My style and my blooms were blooming before my eyes! And all this started with the orange rose I drew with a crayon. Drawing with the flat bottom of the crayon instead of the tip was great. I threw out the bad brush with the bad attitude.
Don’t get caught up in the situation
Decide to abandon the commotion.
Breathe
Breathe
Choose love
Listen to a song
Feel the ease from above
…
I’m going to work on that. Ok time to paint today’s roses!
