Take Time to Relax

"Without relaxation, no real learning is possible." Amma

When we are stressed the body does not readily receive information.
When we are relaxed we can better learn, ask questions, contemplate the information being imparted.

Taking time to relax lends to more efficient use of learning time.
Relaxation can be instilled by mediation, singing, breathing exercises, etc.

Take time to relax and see if it helps.

An Abstraction Evolving - LS

An artsy comrade recommended I make some art that is less people-like
 and more focused on color, in a manor of speaking.
So I ran with that and have been mulling over these sort of pieces.

They are evolving...

Two Buck 'Loot'!

Two Buck Tuesday for February ;)
Whale stickers, book markers, Darius sticker and little notebook, art fliers, a children's book ad about a mushroom and 'home made chalk'!
Hooray :)


Don't stack artwork willy nilly

Just when I thought I knew something, I'm reminded I am liable to forget.
Note to emerging artists: don't stack your art work soon after you've applied a coat of paint. Even if it seems dry it can still be tacky somewhere. :)
Allow to dry and use a buffer, unless you're looking to make a particular effect such as the torn off paint look.

Flowers not Grout Bond

A helpful man at the tool store informed me I could use any ammonia based cleaner for the old scratched grout to prep it for the new grout. Moreover that a bonding agent wasn't so necessary. I'll run with that since its a rental. Plus the awesome agent I sought turns out to be pretty pricey.

Since I was already at the store I got some flower bulbs. See you in Summer flowers!
