In October I had a ball doing a 30 day, art every day challenge. I didn’t really have any expectations for the month, I was just interested in sketching more and seeing if I’d be able to stick to the routine. Little did I know that it would awaken my creativity in a whole new way :). Above and below are a few of peeks of some of the art I created over the course of 30 days. I really enjoyed exploring my interpretation of goddesses :)…that’s Saraswati above and Lakshmi below…amongst sketching out recipes, my everyday yogini’s and I did a little ode to quiet places. It didn’t really put a box around the type of art I had to create which was so freeing.

TAPPING INTO MY #100 DP FLOW During my #100 Day Project, most nights, after I finished up my work day, had dinner with my family, went for a walk and did a few things around the house, I’d sit down around 9 pm to start my daily creation. You’re probably...

INSPIRATION IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS. Throughout my #100 Day project, I was amazed at how inspiration would surface from the least expected places. ? Naturally, at the beginning I gravitated towards creating my yogini’s and quotes that were running through my...

THE INSPIRATION BEHIND IT ALL. From Jan 15-April 20, 2016 I did a #100 Day Project where I created one new piece of art daily. Some days I painted, a few days I sketched on paper with pen, and for many weeks I worked with watercolors. Some days I worked an hour, a...
