Inspired Me

Merry Christmas! A few days ago, I wanted to make some art for my home. Since, I have been doing a lot of watercolor  art journaling pages  and YouTube videos ,  I thought I would use that style for this painting. In addition to watercolors, I used my acrylic paint markers for the ornaments and headpiece. Then, I used red glitter on her top. This "celebrate" girl is encouraging us to celebrate the birth of Christ and think about all the good He offers us. If you need comfort and peace this season, He is here for us. Also, she is inspiring us to celebrate ourselves and all the big and small things we did throughout the year. Give yourself the gift of appreciation. You are doing a great job, really! Ron and I are wishing you all a wonderful Christmas! We hope this art and message fills your home and heart with comfort and joy. God bless!

Happy Holidays! While we are in the season of celebration, I thought I would share this fun curly hair tutorial.  In this beginner friendly video, I shared how to make these fluffy black curls for this art journal style page. Also, in the tutorial you will see how I finished her face and added glitter to her top. I just love the way she turned out in this celebratory look. She is ready for Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve parties. Check out the video, subscribe and give this video a "thumbs up". Thank you!  Link Here Creating these curls was fun and relaxing. Using a watercolor water pen brush made it easy and effortless. I hope you will give it a try. Thanks for stopping by and I am wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!
