☆ The Art of Intention [Life Book 2014]

 Week 8 - The Joy of Intention with Alena Hennessy

This was an interesting lesson for me. Purely abstract, totally leading with my intuition, and a surprising out come from a meditation!

I am not great with abstract work, but I love the way that the circles evolved + the appearance of the feathers. And I am a bit surprised with the yellow - it isn't a colour that I use a lot of!

During a guided meditation, I was drawn to the words peace + harmony, answering the question of what I really wanted in my heart of hearts.

PEACE + HARMONY

Yup, I totally get the reason behind this! But it wasn't the intention that I went into the meditation with. 

What is it that you want RIGHT NOW in your heart of hearts? Perhaps you'll share yours with us below.

By the way: I have a little give away happening this month, but you only have till Tuesday to add your entry + be in with the chance to win 'WISH' original painting. Pop over here for more.

☆ Intention [illustration friday]

Tweet

I am so excited today. I was the red carpet winner for my inspiration avenue piece 'The Three Graces'. See my shiny new show case winner badge? I broke out and did a couple of happy dances through out the day, much to Bean and Bugs amusement. Thanks to Lisa for choosing my painting to join the other winners (and if you have a moment it is well worth a visit!)

Anyway, todays painting is for my Illustration Friday's 'Intention' prompt. 

My intention is to resist this brownie.

When I was painting this I was remembering the intentions I had so carefully set out at the beginning of the year, and yet now we are in March, and I think I need to revisit them. 

I think it might be time to remind myself of how important these goal were to me, and still are. Remind myself to look forward to full filling my dreams for this year.

Have you revisited your dreams lately? Have you managed to cross anything off your list yet? (I was able to cross off 'set up monthly budgets'. Yah I hate that job!)

P.S. And my intention was really to resist the brownie, but because it was a 'healthy' brownie (hey it had zucchini in it...hmmm.... could that count toward my five a day?) I decided to go for it.
