| For Those Who Are Curious |
[Jun. 22nd, 2009|12:36 am] |
I have moved most of my networking and updating over to Facebook and Twitter. I am still posting here, but I just don't have much to say right now other than to post new art. Why? I'm disgustingly content and incredibly busy, and that means I've nothing insightful to share that won't make you all gag over how happy and positive I am right now, and being busy means that even if I did have something to say I don't have the time to write it down.
I'm posting random short bits about the tarot and arting on a daily basis at facebook. Having a word limit on what I can post to my wall means I don't spend as much time writing when I should be painting *winks*.

| WIP: Ace - Water |
[Jun. 17th, 2009|12:56 pm] |
I'm looking forward to starting work on this one after I have finished lunch. There is such a beautiful, sensual energy to the picture. They desire each other. Waves of turbulent emotion push two gentle swans together. One simple mistep could have them both flying away.
Palette will be fairly simple as I am giving each element a set of colours so colour help to make each suit recognisable. Therefore, watery colours will be used - soft blues, teal, watery green, silvery greys, but with a dawn breaking between the two trees symbolise the newness of their emotions.

| Be Happy |

By focusing on all that is wrong in your life you are become dogged by doubts, insecurity, feelings of inadequacy. Instead, be grateful for all that is good in your life, cherish what you do have, laugh, and love. Change the things that can be changed, but don't dwell on what cannot be undone or is broken. Don't avoid life by living in a world of 'what ifs' and 'why them and not me'. |
