Patterns!

Schetsjes gemaakt met referenties van de site Line of Action. Best heel handig. Ik vond de pagina wat saai, daarom heb ik de negatieve ruimte ingekleurd met aquarelverf.

It’s a very simple doodle but I really liked how I colored this cocoon :)

From 2025

This is my first rose, and also the first time I did a pencil outline and then watercolored it in (versus my usual pen and ink sketches filled in with watercolor). I’m happy with it; I sketched it standing in my neighbor’s garden. They’re total sweethearts and gave me previous permission to draw their flowers. Hollie Happily Haunts Your Flowerbeds. Greg sat on our porch across the street. We’d just had a great talk about some of my chronic illness issues (which are still unfun, but the painting helps a lot). Art journaling is my forever jam.

How do I stay motivated when learning something new? I had to answer this WordPress prompt because of what I am going through right now, and what I thought about this morning is totally me!

I paint flowers, lots of them. I am currently trying to figure out this whole Etsy keywords SEO thing. I woke up and wanted to meditate and have a gratitude morning. Instead, I opened up my computer and headed over to my shop. AND, I felt hopeless. It has been 6 months, and I have a few sales. I like my work, but I know it’s all in the presentation. Have I created the art that people want to buy? Then there are titles, keywords, and the SEO that frankly, I am sick of.

Then something in me said, ” We have to make this work. There is no if.” This is my dream. I am putting this out there in the world and seeking guidance. I trust and believe the answer will find me! In that moment, I went back to last year’s work and added new pieces to my shop. Then I made a few changes to my keywords and switched out some frames. It was beautiful!

Inside, I felt like a kid in a candy store, or better yet, that kid who is told we are going to paint today, here are the tools, have fun!

How do I stay motivated when I am learning something new? I feel what I feel, give myself a pep talk when I need it, and get back in there and do what I love! Most importantly, I look for a positive lesson that I can learn from and move forward with.

Do I want to share my work with the world? I do! That is the biggest positive reason to move forward. And that made me smile. Here I am. I am going to go for a stroll and splurge on that dessert.

Wolfie the wolf spider. I found it about a year ago and kept it because winter was coming. Poor thing was missing two legs and a half but it got by just fine 🤎
