Ahh! The Joys of Painting!

I love designing jewelry,
but painting..
Sigh..
How I missed it!
I went into my studio and pulled out some paint and brushes.
Then I unrolled a large sheet of butcher paper, taped it to my worktable, and went at it.
I randomly brushed on some color, then outlined in black paint whatever design came into my head, which usually ends up being flowers, leaves, and hearts, which I really love.

I slashed on more color, just listening to the music playing on my CD player, as well as in my heart,
just having fun.
Later I scribbled in some Caran d'Ache water-soluble pastels, which are sooo nice to work with.

For now, I'm finished, but I just might decide to add some other touches later.
There is a precious thing about art, in whichever form you choose; and that is that after you have finished running around, stressed out from life, the joy of Creativity is always there, waiting for you.
'Til later,
Carol B.
