"Today more than ever before life must be characterized by a sense of universal responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to all other forms of life." - The Dalai Lama    

"The artist never entirely knows.  We guess.  We may be wrong, but we leap after leap in the dark." - Agnes de Millle Visit other Paint Party Friday Participants  here Visit me on ETSY  here Visit me on Instagram  here

"Not only did I love her, but I could tell the universe loved her, too.  More than others.  She was different.  After all, I would be a fool not to notice the way the sunshine played with her hair." ~ Christopher Poindexter ETSY INSTAGRAM

August theme at  Art Journal Journey  is Count Your Blessings... I'm blessed to have a loving husband that has my back no matter what. I'm blessed to have caring, supportive friends that encourage me in everything I do. I'm blessed with sight, hearing, taste & smell as there is so much beauty in this world. I'm blessed to have a constant urge to create and access to the internet to share with others. I'm blessed to enjoy cooking and have fresh ingredients to cook with. I'm blessed to live in a city I love with so much to see and do and explore. What are you blessed with and thankful for? :) Join the Paint Party Friday  here!

"Silver swan by the shore, lift your wings up and fly; will you wait evermore, let life pass you by? You belong to the sun,  you belong to the sky, you have more than one song to sing before you die. To the edge of the moon you'll go, I would fly there with you where the tides of heaven flow above the blue." Visit my ETSY  http://www.artbymisty.etsy.com Visit my @art.by.misty IG  here  

  From the pages of my Art Journal: "...Stand up, open your eyes and go out... do the things you need to do to make it come true instead of just waiting for it to happen." - Kristen Costello IG: @kristens_notebook     What inspires you? Join the Paint Party here
