I’m Feeling Better & A Sunflower for You!

Hi friends! I am feeling a bit perkier today! I have rested my voice and my sore throat is pretty much over. I think the hot humid weather helped too but the 10 hours of sleep I got last night probably made the biggest impact on my health:) I also think creating art has a big impact on health and well-being, even if you only have a few minutes. Here is a 10 minute painting you can make!

It is painted with oils and  palette knife. Sometimes trying something new without expectation (like a kid does every time they create) is the best way to enjoy the process of art and the tactile feeling of spreading paint on with a knife definitely brings me back to the days of fingerpainting! Watch the video to see how!
