Yesterday, I was ill with a summer cold and allowed "Quote Tuesday" to slip on by. Today, I am making up for that.

Sometimes courage is the little voice
at the end of the day that says
I’ll try again tomorrow.” ~ Mary Anne Radmacher

Week 32, The 52 Project

20140809-112739-41259609.jpg

The Eyes, LKW 8/14

It’s in the eyes. This is week 32 of The 52 Project. The photograph that I choose this week, is one of my g’daughter, D. She and I were on a picnic where we laughed, talked and simply spent quality time. I took this shot as she turned away to look at by passers. Shakespeare, among others, is reported to have said that the “eyes are the window to the soul.” D’s eyes exemplify this adage. Looking into them, mesmerizes and draws you in and exposes a beautiful, compassionate soul.

Calling All Painters And Would Be Painters!

Please note that instead of reinventing the wheel, I’ve made some changes to an earlier post announcing the open registration for the “Bloom True” e-course. Another class begins October 13, 2014, and if you have any interest in painting or learning to paint, I cannot urge you strongly enough to take this class. After reading this post, check out the link to an earlier post wherein I reviewed the course more indepth.

Have you ever thought of being an artist and expressing or discovering your creativity? How about learning to paint? I did. In 2012, I decided to stop procrastinating, and signed up for my first drawing and painting e-courses. Doing so was a huge step on my journey, and has become a dream come true, and a burgeoning passion. I discussed it in-depth in this earlier post. In that post, I also reviewed one painting course in particular, Flora Bowley’s e-course “Bloom True.” I am here to tell you that the course was both life-changing and a blessing for me.

I am excited to tell you that her next “Bloom True” e-course begins October 13, 2014. Registration is ongoing and the class fills up quickly, so if you are interested in taking the course and losing yourself in color and meeting your true self, click on the “Bloom True” badge on the lower right sidebar of my blog page. Click on the link and it will take you directly to the course page where you can get additional information, register, and prepare for an incredible experience. I promise that it will be one of the best gifts that you’ve ever given yourself. You will not regret it. In fact, I am seriously considering re-taking the course. The experience was just that powerful.

The course is equally relevant for those with all levels of experience; so even if you’ve never picked up a paint brush, are an established artist, or are well on your way to becoming one, the class is for you! Just do it for yourself. It’s worth it.

The only way to make sense out of change
is to plunge into it,
move with it,
and join the dance.  ~ Alan W. Watts
