What is it about a new year and making a fresh start? Do we constantly have a need to re-invent ourselves? I believe the answer is yes. I know that I always start to think about what I want to accomplish this year and what would make me fulfilled and happy. What does one want to have in one's life. As you get older, your thoughts lean toward your longevity. We are all here on a temporary basis. But we get caught up in the everyday things that we need to do in order to live. Art has a way of making even the most mundane lives one of excitement and pleasure.
Last year and this year, I tried some new mediums that can work with watercolor as I have been wanting to expand my creativity. I dabbled with jelly gouache to create my Monet Garden series of paintings. I tried my hand at Collage in which I created my Moon Series. I now have been interested in lino printing. A novice at best but here is my first result shown below. It is entitled "White Mulberry".
Let us all continue to see the beauty around us and leave the troubles in the world to a God. We can help a little to aleviate some discomforts. Hopefully, I hope that you have enjoyed my blog and has brought some inspiration. Take care and have a happy new year.
