Paint Party Friday! PPF CELEBRATES 11 YEARS!



 PAINT PARTY FRIDAY CELEBRATES 11 YEARS!



Thank you Eva and Kristin for running Paint Party Friday for 11 years! This is truly remarkable, inspirational and amazing. I am grateful for PPF because I have learned so much from other artist and the community is so supportive and wonderful. Truly inspirational place to share art and receive love. 
Thank you so much for everything. 
I will miss you all so much!



It snowed this week in Toronto.




This week I've been creating art everyday for the #100DayChallenge and I am very proud of my self. I am enjoying the process and learning to let go and have fun. It feels good to create and find inspiration.
 I'm truly grateful. 

I wanted to say thank you for all your love and support in my previous post. I appreciate all your comments and love. 

Mixed Media
 Layering and adding various pieces of paper on the page is so much fun. 
This piece is GRATITUDE for Life
I used paints, markers, crayons and paper.



Journaling in my favourite bullet journal
 Leuchtturm 1917
I created a self portrait and a collage. 


Sometimes when I don't know what to paint or draw I just make shapes and colour them in. 
This makes me happy.

Junk Journaling
It's so much fun to recycle paper bits and put them together on a page. 
I love junk journaling. 



Abstract 
I used acrylics and markers


Sometimes if a piece doesn't work out I put it down for a while and go back to it. 
This was my least favourite and now its one of my absolutely favourite pieces. 


Still life vase with chalk pastels, pencil crayons, pencil and markers.

I hope you all had a lovely week being creative and I truly hope I inspired you in some way.

Thank you from my heart,
 I am so grateful to each and every one of you.

Thank you!
