Art Every Day Month Day 18 - Creating new spaces

Yesterday afternoon was fun! I decided that it was time to move Maddy into a bigger room and that meant that Maddy was moving into the spare room, the spare room was moving into my studio,and my studio was moving into Maddy's old room. The mission is on! Firstly I got Maddy's room all sorted, she was so excited that it was about 10pm by the time she chilled out enough and fell asleep. I was buggered too so now I have the joy of getting the other 2 rooms sorted out.

I couldn't help myself from getting a wee clip of her in her new room...

and some photos

My studio soon to be the spare room.

Maddy's old room soon to be my studio.

It was really nice unpacking the paintings out of the wardrobe in the spare room, it's been a few years that they have been packed away. You just don't get the same feeling and see the vibrant colours from photos of them.

The Youtube clip of the day is of my cousin Joel having fun...

The card I pulled for today was...SERENITY

it said...you are moving into a time of greater inner peace and tranquility. Peace of mind means feeling secure and knowing you are always provided for. Even if your logic mind can't fathom how a challenge could be resolved, peace of mind lets you trust that god will create a miraculous solution. Faith is a key component in experiencing such miracles. By drawing this card you are reassured peace of mind is within you. You can feel serene, even in the greatest turmoil. It is a mistake to think your life has to be problem free to enjoy happiness. First you work towards serenity then your life challenges lessen and disappear. Serenity is your natural state of mind.

Right I had better get back to it so that it doesn't fill the rest of my day finishing.

Good-Bye Summer Family Ritual

For the past week I have been feeling the shift of seasons from summer into autumn. This has motivated me to c lean out closets, freshening up our home, make this summer photo collage, and created a family ritual. I find ritual really powerful it allows you the time to honour what has come before, say goodbye, and create intentions for what will come next. I've been poking around the internet and have found interesting articles on family summer rituals. Here are some of the suggestions I have read… Summertime is full of outdoor pursuits, so adding the outdoors into your ritual fits perfectly. Preserve summer fruits for the chilly months ahead. Engage in cooking or baking with summer ingredients. Shared a meal of seasonal food. Press summer flowers or herbs in books. Create a memory book of the past summer with photographs, ticket stubs, memorabilia, quotes, family jokes, poem, or anything else that reminds the family of fun times. Create a summer nature journal, detailing a

Art Every Day Month Day 7 - Encaustic Wax

I'm really enjoying blogging again, it's been years since I have written everyday. I used to do morning pages before I got pregnant, I have heaps of books full of my dribble. The Artist Way by Julia Cameron got me into the morning pages! Every artist should own a copy of that book! I was talking to a friend yesterday and she wanted me to order her a box of encaustic wax. I haven't done any encasutic for such a long time, so today was the day to dust off the cobwebs and get melting. Here are my 2 creations for the day... Releasing my MADNESS! Getting more into it without distractions Don't you love the texture wax makes! I have been looking for my cutter cause this card is too big and I just can't find it anywhere.
