As this New Year comes into focus, it's time to start planning and setting new goals with enthusiasm and intention. 2020 offers a panorama of opportunities to create, to experience an exciting Art Adventure, to select learning events, and to grow like never before! Choose something you love to do and ignite your passion! Submit to all the positive energy coming your way from the universe and send it back out to others, embellished with your creative energy.
Say goodbye to worn-down pencils, those tired, shabby brushes, and last-drop paint tubes. Stop trying to fix old ideas that just won't cooperate. Begin again; as if this is your first day… after all, this is the first day of the rest of your life! Select your favourite new colours from the rainbow and invite them to bring your dreams to life. Give your imagination permission to work overtime. Get out the fresh, white canvases, restock those waiting brush containers, squeeze out clean new paint onto your palette, and set your mind’s dial to having fun! Play until your heart is content! Decide this is your year to experience joy that renews your soul.
Creatively brainstorm to uncover your gifts and unlock your artistic future. Set an example to your family and friends by taking a journey of discovery, weather in your backyard or around the world. Enroll in a course and join a group of like-minded souls. Share your interests, your knowledge, and your talent! Time is our only asset. So, start where you are and start now. Make every moment count!
Cheers, Patricia.
