Golden

She stands in the golden light of spring.

This is my creative piece for Found Art Friday hosted by Cathy Nichols. The theme this time around was ' Golden'. I had a fun time creating this piece.

Thanks Cathy for being the spearhead of this group. Happy Weekend everyone!

Nature in Bloom

Much to my surprise, these beautiful orchids bloomed in my garden this spring. I can't believe I have the capacity to grow such a beautiful flower. I guess I sell myself short, and don't give myself enough credit. Which is why I have yet to set up my Esty store. I am afraid that I will fail, and I will be back where I started. But I will never know until I try. Fear (I keep telling myself) is all made up in my head. It's a slow process for me to face my fears. Kinda like growing this orchid. It took a lot of time to get these flowers to bloom in all their beauty.

Got a new painting to share with everyone on Friday. Check back then.

One last item, just signed up for Kelly Rae Robert's first e-course Flying Lessons: Tips + Tricks To Help Your Creative Business Soar. I am super excited to take her class. She is such an inspiration to me, and love, love to get lost in her blog.

Feeling Blue

This painting fits my mood today. A bit blue for situations that I can not control. I wish I was not so emotional, because it would make my personal relationships easier! Trying to be kind to myself today, and not beat myself up for things I did and said.

One a happy note I accomplished one of my goals this month, by finishing two paintings. Two down two to go.

Monthly Goals

Here are a list of my monthly goals. Since this is my first time doing this, I am gonna keep it
simple.

• Set up my Etsy shop
• Finish three paintings
• 60 cards of my design professionally printed, and list them on Etsy

On a side note, got engaged this weekend! Which explains why I did not post my goals earlier this week.

Looking forward to making some huge leaps this month. So far April has been a very fulfilling month.
