Day 3 of 100 artworks challenge Mixed media art
In my attempts to create art today I was scattered in thought and thus couldn’t begin my project. Decided to recycle an old watercolor sketch I found as I went through my papers. I sliced and diced the sketch and incorporated the piece into my project. Amongst the clutter of discarded art can be something reimagined, be open to new possibilities.

Looking up, the beams on this building seem fit for climbing. Sign appropriate.
The eye catching New Museum, with its unique modern exterior is sandwiched between a neighborhood full of aged buildings. This building is home to new contemporary art, located in lower Manhattan.
The nights are always ablaze.
Inspiration can be found anywhere if you dare to stop and notice…

The invisible current is all around
let it guide you, and just go with the flow

Yes we are more than just _ (insert your own thought) Days that let us down, we get caught up with the drama in real time or in our heads. Knowing something is not a good fit for us and not doing enough to change it. A shift within occurs, it all unravels, and we begin to rely on ourselves for answers, we see ourselves for who are and that is ok.

Don’t allow people to use their darkness to blanket your authentic self
and strip your joy. Let yourself shine so your own path can be illuminated.

Reflecting on my day.
Sail your own course to open waters, break free of attachments, forget those who are unappreciative of your time and energy. Stay steady, stay strong.

(Untitled and unfinished – acrylic on canvas)
As if by magic an unseen source
guiding along invisible currents
pushing air through tight open spaces
traveling across the surface
absorbing into the body
reaching a new friend
speaks with quiet force – a change is coming do you accept
invite, anticipate, refresh,
and then its gone….
