new face in journal.

Some days I sit down and the face just appears, other days it is hard work creating. I have found out if I work on the layering one day and then pencil in my face it is a more sucessful adventure in art. As I have always heard it is the process not the art that makes an artist feel the spiritual side of creating and I am beginning to believe that. Letting it flow works better than planning it out!

from blog land..good thoughts

Some days it is just hard to get your mind set on good things, but even when feeling a bit blue we can change our way of thinking and do the next good thing that will bring those wonderful serotonin baths to our brain. Many times it is truly to get the right mindset, think on things above as scripture says! Usually the mind comes first the feelings later, and then action helps to set the right mood for the moment. EX: unless you are a kid...You are NEVER going to just feel like excercising but do it and you begin to feel better,keep at it and you see changes. Same way with our thought and attitudes you have to put in the effort, on that note check out the link below for a very insightful list of 15 things to give up in order to be happy and no worries chocolate is not on the list!
