Art Process: Swift Change, Blue Break, and Collage Fodder Madness.
Art making mania: Well, I seem to be on a roll with the art-making. I’m just in art obsessed mode. I never run out of ideas or new things I want to try! I’ve been watching a lot of you tube videos on art making. This past week I have watched mixed media techniques, howContinue reading “Art Process: Swift Change, Blue Break, and Collage Fodder Madness.”
Wild Hearts
This is a mixed media painting made on 01.05.23. Perhaps it’s my first art piece of the New Year. This painting was started to show others how to do collage in an art therapy group. I found one piece of paper with the words, “heart” and “wild” as well as a bunch of other randomContinue reading “Wild Hearts”
Shawn’s Sunflowers
My brother loves sunflowers! This was the very first sunflower painting I made him! Now, he has a collection!

Art process, more layers: Golden Healing, Part 3

I sense that the word “repair” might be part of its message when it’s all done. I covered theContinue reading “Art process: Layers and pours; Part 2 of Golden Healing.”
Art process: Choose Life
Here, you can see earlier versions of this artwork. It’s cool how God can bring things together. I’m not sure if I should tweak this anymore, but for now, I’m happy with it. This is a digital image that was made spontaneously on Coral Painter and Photoshop. It’s so fun to just play, experiment, andContinue reading “Art process: Choose Life”
The Gift
I believe the time has arrived for God to bring His promises. They’re his beautiful gifts to His bride which has persevered and waited patiently, holding onto faith despite adversity and affliction. God says “It’s time for the comeback! It’s time for restoration and recompense!” See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springsContinue reading “The Gift”
Thankful October
This watercolor painting was my example art for the subject of thankfulness. I had all my groups at the psychiatric hospital make art about something they were thankful for. We talked about how being thankful can improve our mood and help balance our perspective, especially when faced with overwhelming adversity or despair. We talked aboutContinue reading “Thankful October”
