Letting my aritistic side out

So much change is happening in the world right now.  I am wondering how we can be really true to our own soul’s mission in these transformative times. One thing I am doing is painting again. It just happened. I wanted to really honor something I have longed to do for quite some time.

I pulled out a lot of books I had on the subject of creating handmade journals and doing collage. I surrounded myself with my oodles of art supplies that have been collecting dust.

 

Before jumping in, I must admit, I called a friend who is an art teacher and asked if she would help me. When she was unavailable I realized that I had to really honor that I had enough skill and knowledge to do this. Besides, it is just my expression and it doesn’t have to be picture perfect. I gave myself the freedom to just draw, paint and scribble down my thoughts any way I liked. Here are some of the results. What do you think?  

 

What have you been longing to do but have not been able to find the time to do? Can you honor yourself enough to give it a try? Let me know how this works for you. I would love to hear.
