Magical Monday, Summer of Color and Creative Everyday

Asian Style Brush Painting




Welcome to our blog where we view life from the eyes of an artist's soul and explore how creativity enhances the inner spirit.


Today is Monday and we have our Magical Monday Meme, blog hop for creative people of all mediums. The link to join is just at the end of this post. Do share with us your creations. We are also exploring and linking to a new event Summer of Color 2 which begins today. We are also linked with Creative Every Day. All links are blogs that are filled with creative artists of all mediums.
What a Monday! Lots of viewing of wonderful creations. Below is another photo of my Summer of Color creation. It is a an Asian style brush painting. The above photo for some reason seems to have a blue tint to it but it is done on mixed media white paper.








 Hope you enjoy the wonderful creations on all the blogs. Wishing you a magical and loving week.




Hugs and namaste,


and




We love to have you post your comments, thoughts or questions to delight us all in the day ~ especially, ArtMuse Dog. ^_^
She also thinks Google + is pretty neat.
