So I was reading this awesome book over the weekend, and there is a line in it which stuck with me.
I sat down later this week, trying to decide what to do. I needed to paint and I have a new large painting I want to start, but I don't think I want to start it while trying to prep for the Harvest Markets next weekend.
Along the same vein as the winter princess, I have an idea of a painting called the 'sun goddess'.
As I sat with my journal in front of me, I decided to just play. And again this line kept running through my head.
This was such a fun page to make, and as always I loved that my hands were covered in paint.
It fills my soul with joy.
The line is different from the one used in the book, but I liked it better.
Oh and the book I was reading (if anyone is interested!) was Fighting Redemption by Kate McCarthy. I loved it by the way - couldn't put it down.
So please share with us, what fills your soul with joy? Or what 'couldn't put it down' books have you read lately?? I would love to hear your stories.
Im looking cigars to seeing how this turns out. I already live the colours and that's a lovely line.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful and it's a gorgeous quote! Lovely :)
