Dear Photo Diary | Paint, Rinse, Repeat

You don’t need endless time and perfect conditions. Do it now. Do it today. Do it for twenty minutes and watch your heart start beating.

Paint, rinse, repeat. Then also remember to clean your brushes

Paint, Rinse, Repeat. Every time I do it, my heart starts beating and most of the time I can not stop after 10 or 20 minutes. I just want to go on, painting dots in my Art Journal for ever and ever. Like so:

Dear Photo Diary

Dear Photo Diary is back. So random photos from this and then, all about beauty and creativity in everyday life. As seen by yours truly behind the lens of her camera (sometimes phone). So some creative action, and random favorites, like my tiny hanging planter with a flamingo peeking up:

Watching way to many tutorials on youtube via my iPhone. Addictive, but I should stop and do more for my own channel, right?

 Then some painting. Here is the art journal page in progress:

And I have had this for a while, but still love it:

Aren’t transparent pen cases the best? I have a plan to make my own version, but tomorrow is dedicated to article writing. I hope you’ve had a lovely weekend, and that you’re documenting some of it for another day.

See you tomorrow with a new post!

    • Thank you Lynette, I was quite thrilled with finding this quote too because it is what I believe too. Just do it, as they say. Wishing you a happy week too!

  1. I love your art journal page – you have an awesome way with pretty colors! Hmmm … I have paints and paint brushes and something to paint in but just haven’t been doing it. Hopefully soon I’ll get a few extra minutes and get them out and play.
