So I am probably THE WORST when it comes to expressing my emotions in my art… but today I really found this helpful. I have been feeling a bit ‘off’ lately and so I figured I would give it a try. The second piece is very personal for me but it is a part of my journey so I will share. Staying positive and hopeful and optimistic… 

I started with the background, smudged it, (like in the lesson), then drew in some blobs and lines. Once I got going it came so easily and it really took on a life of its own - which is even that much more meaningful. I had no idea what this was going to become and I am so happy with the result. 

I wanted to incorporate pink yellow and blue for multiple reasons… for me, these colors represent the emotions I mentioned above but also they are colors of spring which remind me of new life and new beginnings. 

Also - I usually spend HOURS on my illustrations and other art but this was less than 30 minutes! I can’t believe it!
