Art of Your Heart


I write this little saying all the time because it is just so true for me. It is so amazing to me how different (and better) my art is when it comes spontaneously and serendipitously straight out of my heart. Most (99%) of the art I post on my art du jour blog is created this way.  I have had to do many commissions and other art on demand throughout the years and although I love my art and love to create it, if it is "on demand" from an outside source I feel that it is forced and contrived. I don't think the viewer can see (I hope not!) it but I sure can.

This was written quickly with my new fabulous Pentel Pocket cartridge brush fountain pen. I also got out my Pan Pastels for the sun and one of my favorite stencils. I should do that more often because that was awesomely fun!

So today was quick and fun = art du jour!

    Great lettering and I agree: commissions sometimes cause me to 'freeze up'. I like the spontaneous better.

    You wont believe what happened today. I was going through my box of colored pencils...and I came across this pen, I haven't been able to find it for a very long time...so I let out a squeal of delight, then opened it...no cartridge. But thanks to you...off to Dick Blick I go!!

    You must always create straight from your heart Martha. Every creation you put out on your blog is beautiful and so unique to you. I recognize your creations on Pinterst without even seeing your name first. Love your quote and the reminder that we should each be unique and create from our own hearts.

    ♥Lee Ann
