my creative week "everything I need exists within me"

 

for the last week of pink scraps at RSC, I pieced tiny scraps and turned it into a notebook cover



the back

the insides
That's silk on the binding for sheen!

for the last lessons on Sketchbook Revival... the parade starts now



this is a daily practice... 4 small blocks, an object, a sky scene, word, abstract

daily gratitude words and image




I LOVE the area near the bottom where two colors blended




And two morning paintings this week on my own

"Life goes round N round" 
this one to use up some gouache on the palette (yogurt lid)
And this one from watching a Buddhist video.... hope you can click on the image to read some quotes


inks
do not rush to be "more"


loved this orange flower image from https://llbinourbackyard.blogspot.com/

A+ job on all your Sketchbook Revival. Hey, I think we get our palettes at the same store... although yours is a yogart lid, min's the lid from either a lysol wipes or a butter tub! ha ha ha!
