Where there’s love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.”
--Ella Fitzgerald
Little sprinkles of
inspiration…I heart them!!! And,
the quote above, it truly speaks to me; most especially right now. When I live life in the tickled pink mode, my inspiration radar
is constantly roving—searching for more of these enticing tidbits to assist me
in moving onward & upward.
What I’m learning is
that inspiration can be found anywhere it is sought. Be it viewing a vase of fresh-cut flowers, being totally in
the moment when my forehead touches a yoga mat or listening to an uplifting
podcast, if is my intention to find inspiration (to create art, complete a
project, pull together the perfect outfit for an afternoon tea party or live my
life with far fewer regrets), it will somehow materialize.
Pictured above, are
my April dreams; incorporated into my dear, sweet art journal. Every time I view them, I am inspired to gift them to myself (aka
accomplish them).
Speaking of inspiration…
If you are looking for an inspiring artist’s date, here’s one I’d highly
recommend: Establish some quiet
time with your journal (curled up in your favorite chair at home—under a tree
you adore—at a café while savoring a latte—wherever you wish!). Then, create a list of things that have
recently inspired you; noting why and how. Tie a bow around this experience by crafting an inspiration
plan for living your best year yet.
As noted above, crafting my monthly dreams into my art journal and viewing
them frequently further inspires me to live my very yummiest.
Amidst the April
showers, let inspiration reign! T.
