I read the following post yesterday. Well, I scanned it and have to read it over breakfast this morning. What a great topic for my post.

Does the following scenario sound relatable?

I get my supplies out. I have an idea. Mix a color palette and start painting. Then the plan pops in my head, and I’m like OK. I have to follow up, and I do, and I keep working and thinking and thinking. Maybe it’s an hour later, and I’m still not done. For some reason, I don’t like the painting. I put the painting away a few days later, keep working, and on it goes.

Or this happens. I get this urge, like the painting is still inside me. I got leftover paint from the project that wasn’t. Suddenly, an idea and excitement compel me to pick up the brush. I must use these beautiful colors I mixed. And I’m just curious. I take that brush and make some marks. In five minutes, I have a beautiful painting. Why is that so?

All of these just happened, and they are my favorites!

It’s because the best work comes when you just let it. Yes, it’s good to have an idea. Mainly, it’s awesome to be like the kid who doesn’t care and wants to paint.

I held my first sale for my Etsy shop, and nobody came. I’m still here, proud of my work, but I have to make changes. I’ll do that as soon as I finish this post. I love to paint and will always paint. I am making changes. I’m focusing on my printable art and wall art.

Thank you for being here.
