The intention of this blog was to be about my creative journey, as I set forth with joy in my heart and follow the path of my dreams. I am an example of what can happen when we make a conscious decision toward change. I believe we all are creative in one way or another. Sometimes we just convince ourselves otherwise. Remember... it was just a little over 3 years ago I did not know that I could draw or paint. It was when I decided to let my creative spirit out to play that my creative life began to evolve. It is my mission to encourage each and everyone of you to let YOUR creative spirit out to play, too. You will be amazed and joyful at what unfolds.
We can create art together. We can have fun together. Me & You & Your Friends, too!
I was given sage advice from an artist friend of mine,
Kelly Hoernig, "
to explore who I am as an artist".
Thank You, Kelly!
When the opportunity to join this class presented itself I knew it was going to be just the right fit. It's hard to believe that 12 weeks have already gone by since I enrolled in
48 Weeks with Donna Downey. It goes without saying that I am learning lots of techniques and using products I hadn't even heard of before. I find this to be very exhilarating!!!
I just finished the 1st semester and I wanted to show you the work I've done. I am working in a moleskin journal, each piece measures16 x 23. This is bigger than I am familiar with. Since I have been doing this for 12 weeks I am really getting the itch to paint on a larger canvas. One day soon!

Teresa, these are all SO wonderful. You have worked very hard and every single piece is so different. My favorite is week 2. I looks like you used some sort of fabric in it and I love the muted colors. I feel really inspired to play with all the mediums I have on hand.
ReplyDeleteLovely lovely!!!!
