been quiet

Yes I have…
Slowly gaining energy after iron issues…

but if I have been quiet on the blog, I kept painting and drawing…
I am still working on my 100 faces challenge. A slow progress that brings
me joy!

Here are the latest

I bought some new graphic watersoluble pencils and had a good fun trying them out

A bird boy inspired by my friend Anne checked out by a swimming cap girl! This last one was part of a spontaneous series with artist friends around the world…Anne, Jeanne-Marie, Renee…

and another girl with a swimming cap in pastels

I feel my style is evolving. The experiments and learnings are getting integrated… a long way to go but I’m enjoying the ride;)

E x p a n d

my word for this year…
this will be my compass, my reminder of those desires and dreams
that can get forgotten under a pile of paper, client work, life passing and stuff…

I’ve written my word on the wall to remind myself of my vision…
for the days where it will seem easier to do other things and to not attend to this plan!
the days where playing will be more attractive than studying.
This is a reminder of where I am heading…

Time to Bloom

A year ago, I was about to start the fabulous Bloom True e-course with Flora Bowley. This seems so far away now as I have moved on on other ‘artventures’. It remains a very special time in my mind as I decided to fully embrace and celebrate my creativity. and with Flora’s guidance, I certainly did that!

So, is it that far away…not really. I am still at the beginning; I have so much to learn, so many concepts that are unknown to me. I am still looking for my own voice… I have not completed 100 paintings as Flora suggested… But I am experimenting, touching this and that…. wasting probably too much time on the net for inspiration but also trying things…trying and trying again…

So, when the doubts and questions reappear in my mind, I try to embrace them and then, I turn to my heart..and try again!

Flora’s next e-course will start again in February. If you ever wanted to have a go with paint, paintbrush and canvas, this is the time!!!
