The joy Of the Lord

I chose this verse for today as it speaks to me about being JOYful and thankful for all that He has done for me. And Also, I should be JOYful for Life.

JOYful that....
My kids are well.
We are well taken care of.
and the list can go on....

I drew this to speak of renewed life as we gain strength from the Lord.

I hope this picture which I drew will also give you the inspiration and renewed strength to venture into things you have never dared try.

Have a Blessed day! *hugs*

Boy! Never knew it was kind of difficult to take a picture with foil. :)  Have fun

WAW #63 - Living Waters

I am just so amazed at how the Lord works in mysterious ways! Never in my wildest dreams have I ever thought I was an artist and this year, somehow...I felt thats who I am. :)

As I journal each day through drawing, I am also beginning to discover my inner talents which I never knew were there. I am excited and amazed at the same time. This discovery stage just feels so awesome.

And today's word at Word Art Wednesday confirms it. I feel a fresh outpouring of living waters flowing through me.

Thank you Lord.

This is what I drew today... my inspiration.

Have a blessed day! *hugs*

Creative Every Day - Dark

The only thought I had about Dark was... Night. Lol. Then again, I love Owls..."Hoot! Hoot!" I told myself, I had to create an owl and add doodles and zens on it.

And I have added a night sky to give that Dark Theme. Usually, my pictures tells something about my feelings but for today's, there's no dark emotion towards it but JOY. I am just enjoying these moments when I am able to paint and relieve my childhood again! :)

I really had a fun time creating my owl... Will do another one sometime. So, I hope you have enjoyed your visit here too! Have a blessed day! *hugs*

Creative Everyday Challenge 2013

This  year have so far, started with a great bang! of new opportunities, explorations and fun!

I am still in the exploration stage of discovering my inner talent. but nevertheless... I am enjoying every bit of it.

For a start, I am going to try and create something each (if possible) or even doodle an art, do loads of zentangles...you should try them.. they are so much fun!

You just might never know you inner talent which is probably waiting to be unlocked! :)

The theme for this month on Creative Everyday challenge is: DARK.

I find it quite hard to do something dark and I am a person who loveees COLOURS! But never the less.. I am going to try and do one tomorrow. But meanwhile...

Here's what I have been meddling with today...

I know,  a lot of practice is still needed. No worries, I will get there soon! *hugs*

Have an awesome day!

A new Adventure for 2013 - Joy Journal 2013

For the year 2013, I wanted to experience something new. Something I have never ventured into nor dared to. Maybe out of fear, or low self esteem.

I am always so amazed by what some talented artists come up with and I have always dreamt of being in their shoes. :)

So, I took a challenge with myself to venture into mixed media crafting. I was really excited when I found a group on FB who are doing just that. And this amazing lady is so giving. Shes such a wonderful person to meet. You should check out her site.

Well, here's my first attempt on mixed media. I am going to create a journal out of it. The reason why mine is on loose papers is because I do intend on creating something else at the end of it. So do keep a look out for it!

We had to choose a word. On first thought, mine was PERSEVERANCE. I believe, this word is really for me. I have a tendency to give up easily. So for this year... I am going to work on this word - PERSEVERANCE!

The words surrounding the word "PERSEVERANCE" are the meaning to it. And I have also added a scripture verse to it - JAMES 1:2-3.

I hope you enjoyed this page as much as I did creating them. Have a Blessed day! *hugs*
