Color is my day-long obsession, joy and torment.
Claude Monet

This was a highly successful learning tool. A successful painting. Not so much. In my opinion it is stiff, dark and lacks the organic quality a scene like this should have. In my mind was my Day 8 field of flowers. The loose arrangement, bright colors, the free flowing forms.

I was too in my head with this one. And I started backwards. Major mistake. I started with the greens, and then added the blooms. Because it was not going the way I had planned, I decided to try, cartoony. Well, sometimes mix and match works. And sometimes it doesn’t. Haha.

It counts as creative. Because I kept going. I didn’t quit. I experimented. I went with the flow.
I did the work. And the sky is not too bad. Haha.

Happy creating everyone! We made it through another challenge. We set a goal, and made the commitment. The end of the tunnel is near. That is something to smile about. 🙂

Everybody born comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory. We come from the Creator with creativity.
I think that each one of us is born with creativity.
Maya Angelou

Whether you succeed or not is irrelevant,
there is no such thing. 
Making your unknown known is the important thing.

There are always flowers for those who want to see them.
 Henri Matisse

A flower’s appeal is in its contradictions,
so delicate in form yet strong in fragrance,
so small in size yet big in beauty,
so short in life yet long on effect.
Terri Guillemets

It’s Friday, YAY! I don’t know why I am saying that. I am still working on getting better, so everyday is pretty much the same. LOL. I have no plans other than painting, painting, and more painting. Haha.

Doesn’t sound like a bad plan after all! Happy weekend everyone!

Kindness and caring are ambrosia for the soul.
