It is Friday!
time to peek into each other's studios.
remember to visit Jennifer @ Studio JRU
(she has yet another gift for us today).
As I was beating myself up for
an "unproductive" week others
allowed me to recognize
the voice of the discourager.
These were the words
I shared,
the words meant for
myself:
a reminder about art...
it is not always about paint, fabric, pens, etc.
It is about creating beauty
wherever you are
as you do what you do.
My greatest lesson last year
was that I want
to make loving others art.
So as you cook?
clean?
fold clean clothes?
paint?
sew?
write?
You are creating beauty.
That is art.
End of soap box.
Will you share your art from this week?
Here or over at Studio JRU.
My art was practical this week. Thank you for the reminder that it was beautiful too.

Brena, art is nothing but grace, yes?
DeleteYes exactly! I love this reminder, Julie, about using different tools! Perfectly explains how I hope a variety of creative hearts can come together each week. I love the variety of projects!! :)
ReplyDeletethere is this really great artist, she reminds me of it often! thanks for being an encourager Jennifer!
DeleteLove your attitude Julie -- it's difficult not to get disappointed when something we try doesn't always turn out as we envision. It's the process. Thank you for the reminder.
