Color. Nature. You.- Creatively Hue
Painting Flowers and Self-Expression
Oh I like this! It’s fun to read, makes me smile. It’s always important to take care of you. I like going for walks and watching the moon change shape. Helping others, dancing, watching a good movie, painting, this is how I take care of myself.
Oh and the best way I take care of me is that as I’m drawing letters, I am drawing. There is no hand lettering, or rulers. I draw. When the doubter voices comes along it doesn’t really phase me.
How do you care of you?
I’ve seen mosaics before but not like the ones in Park Guell You have colors complimentary to others. You have contrasting colors. You have monotones. You have analogous colors. You have bright colors, warm colors, cool colors…somehow it works. That’s what this great big world is full of, COLOR. I can’t get over how each tile brings out the beauty in the others.
Paint a mosaic and let color guide. I sometimes choose a dominate color like blue or pink and let go.
The cover of my book should be a mosaic. YES! Now I’ll go edit the book and do a little lettering.
We all have a voice inside that begs to be heard
‘It’s not begging, its just that nothing feels absurd
We want to ride like the big kids
We fall, we ride, we fall and then we learn to skid!
These moments, who you truly are will never fade away
I was listening to a James Victore podcast and his words practice without doubt, practice without perfection and practice without comparison are golden. When I practice it’s not that I’m happy or perfectly painting. There is this peace and in that peace are me an the idea. There are no rules, that terrible sense of rules that makes you hold the brush wrong and you’ve made a mistake. Someone shared that very notion with me. We think it’s wrong because we’ve conditioned ourselves to believe such lies. We have allowed outside forces to condition us.
I just had my birthday almost a week ago and I’m still celebrating. I’ve been posting some of my words and getting more likes. These are what I really want to make. Thank you for your feedback. Your likes are inspiration to keep painting. I’m going to keep painting regardless.
This is one of my favorites. I read some Eric Carle stories. I’m in the mood for collage this weekend.
You can’t do both. Yes it’s hard sometimes but we always have a choice.
I wanted to paint a sketch of three flowers in complimentary color. The idea is to compliment each other with our talents, strengths, culture, language, art etc.
Now that’s certainly worth celebrating.
