Inky colors

 


Trying out some color with some new pens, this one was a fun piece!

Color is a powerful tool for self-expression. Whether we are creating art, designing a space, or simply selecting our wardrobe, the colors we choose can communicate a wide range of emotions, moods, and ideas.

Color can be used to express a wide range of emotions. Bright and bold colors like red, orange, and yellow are often associated with energy, excitement, and passion. Cool colors like blue, green, and purple can evoke feelings of calm, serenity, and relaxation. Colors can also be used to express more complex emotions like sadness, nostalgia, or even anxiety.

Beyond emotions, color can also be used to express different moods and themes. Warm and earthy colors like browns and greens can create a natural and organic feel, while metallic colors like gold and silver can add a touch of glamour and luxury. Bright and neon colors can create a playful and vibrant vibe, while pastels can add a soft and dreamy quality.

Color can also be used to express our individuality and personal style. The colors we choose to wear, decorate our homes with, and even use in our artwork can communicate our unique tastes, preferences, and personality. Whether we prefer bold and vibrant hues or subtle and muted tones, the colors we choose can communicate who we are and what we value.

Don't be afraid to bring some color to your atmosphere!

Baking is many things to me-  it is therapeutic, a science experiment, a feeling of warmth and home.  Every year I make these pumpkin cheesecakes and spread the love throughout family and friends.  Aren't they pretty?

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla

1/2 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
dash of ground cloves
dash of ground nutmeg
1 ready-to-use graham cracker crumb crust (6 oz.)

Instructions:

Heat oven to 325°F.

Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with mixer until blended. Add eggs; mix just until blended. Remove 1 cup batter; stir in pumpkin and spices.

This was just a fun distraction.  I wanted to try out some new patterning and just see what I could come up with, and this is what ensued. 

Do you ever just start with swirls and see where they take you?

We are slowed down sound and light waves, a walking bundle of frequencies tuned into the cosmos. We are souls dressed up in sacred biochemical garments and our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music.
