Paintings are fun to look at. They evoke all kinds of emotions and help us see our world in different ways.
A painting can be YOUR inspiration
Be on the lookout for paintings that make you want to do YOUR own art. You might express your creativity in baking, gardening, carpentry or even designing rockets.
Whatever your choice of self expression:
1) find paintings that inspire you to create.
2) buy the painting(s)
and
3) put them in a prominent place in your home or office.
Why?
It will put a smile on your face and enthusiasm in your morning routine. Invest in yourself. That is a good investment. Buy art that you like, don’t let others influence your decision. Choose art that speaks to you.

-Stop waiting until you feel inspired
-Everyone is creative. That side often gets shut down early in our life. Bring it back to life.
-Play in the “creative sandbox”. There is no right or wrong way.
-Treat yourself kindly.
-Commit fifteen minutes every day. Or make it five minutes if that seems more doable. The point is to spend a few minutes every day focused on your creative passion. If it evolves into more time, bonus. But five minutes every day will evolve into great achievement. I promise.

-Keep focused on doing it. That is the accomplishment. Give yourself the freedom to not expect to like the final product.

Everyday experiences can be the fuel for your creativity. Watching the colors in the sky or the silhouette of trees and feeling the sunshine on your face can give you inspiration. Have you ever studied how many different blues there are in the sky on a clear day? The softer lighter yellower tints near the horizon and then clear cerulean blue above that and as you look higher there appears to more and more red in the blue until it is an intense dark brilliant ultramarine blue. It is fascinating to see and study. A hammock will work well for this important research. Be sensitive to the colors and how they make you feel. You are gathering color for your palette.
