Here is My Word Path for Today


Live Summer          by Velásquez©2013


I had a wonderful visit today with my lovely friend and creative mentor, Pia via Skype. She is in Sweden painting and creating. We talked about life, art and Summer days. She inspired today's Word Path. She always reminds me to enjoy those small moments with the children. 
We will be in the same gallery show coming in September, I will keep you posted. Can't wait to develop her creative suggestions, she has always been a great guide and teacher. 

Here she is painting in Växjö.

Brushes and Ink to Get Centered


Wow! After five intense and amazing weeks taking Lilla Roger's e-course, Make Art That Sells and then participating in The Global Talent Search competition last week, I must admit I am quite beat creatively. In order to decompress I painted without a plan. I love these exercises with just ink and paper, they make magic. I played with my favorite brushes and acrylic ink and found my "flow". 
I went back to basics with black and white two favorites in my color palette! 

The two sections I started painting from.



My final piece. So happy with this painting.
