I’ve always wanted to share pieces of my artwork with you that are not up for sale. I also would like to let you know I have original paintings in my ETSY store that are available for purchase! I will be adding smaller pieces and cards soon.
It’s easy to read “DO WHAT YOU LOVE” but so hard to do. It sounds amazing but excuses and fear get in the way of getting out and doing things. Sometimes it is work, family and responsibilities.
I feel that If we do things we enjoy and love our happiness will grow. I’m a victim of not doing enough things that I love. This year I’m going to try really hard and put my self first.
I started drawing and painting again and opened up my ART STORE. I’m so happy and this is the first step. This is my number 1 of ‘Do what you love’ I’m letting go more and I’m putting an end on being too hard on my self.
Here are a few paintings and sketches that are not in the store.

I hope you have a beautiful week my friends thank you for being here. Thank you for your comments and your love. Please visit the ART STORE. I appreciate it so much.
Happy February! Do you wake up everyday and do what you love? Do you look in the mirror and tell your self that you are special and amazing and beautiful and important? I hope you do! I’m here to remind you that YOU are very special and important. I want YOU to do what makes you happy and what brings you joy. Do more of what brings you happiness in your life.
Trust me on this. Don’t sit around and wait for it. I made the mistake many times. GO OUT AND GET IT! JUST GO FOR IT! If you want something you can do it by taking the right steps. One step at a time.
I know you can do it and I would love to know, what brings you joy? Is it dancing? art? photography? writing? walking? I would love for you to do more of what brings you joy and laughter. I know for me a lot of things bring me joy that I would like to do this year that I haven’t for a long time. I doubt my self, I feed my brain with thoughts like “it’s too late to do that” or “I’m not good anymore”. STOP RIGHT THERE! Says who? WHO MADE THE RULES? No one! There are no rules! WOW right? Listen up people, this goes for me too. It’s never too late!
This year and for the rest of my life my goal is do everything that I doubted I could do. Does that make sense? Do it for your self! You come first in life. Your health and wellness matter and what also matters most is what goes on in your head and heart. Feed the Soul with love and goodness. Feed your mind with positivity. Feed the heart with love and be easy on your self. Love your self. Never give up on your dreams. Take one step at a time to make it happen. Don’t let fear drive you away from what you love to do. Be in the moment, feel it and do it!

What are some things on your list? I would love to know in the comments.
I’ve been painting a lot and I uploaded my art on ETSY. These are the Original pieces that are on sale. I hope you visit the store and have a look around. I use watercolours, acrylics and a mixture of both. I’m going to make a new collection soon that will include ink. I also want to create smaller pieces and very big canvases.
I really enjoy making art and I’ve been enjoying vlogging as well. I’m trying to stay positive about everything. I’m really trying to live in the moment.
I truly hope February brings you joy, love and comfort. Do what you love and enjoy because life is too short. Look and feel what’s inside you and what brings fire to your soul. If it’s making art, singing, dancing, collecting stamps or writing. Do what you love. I would love for you to share in the comments what you do that makes you happy…and please do more of it!
As I sit in my little office, I have a candle lit and I’m playing Autumn music on my phone. Soft autumnal music is so soothing. It’s dark outside, clouds have gathered and the cool Fall air is refreshing. Â I’m feeling good. I feel very positive and happy.
I’m really excited to share with you that I’ve opened up my Etsy Store. I look forward to sharing my Original pieces with the world. It’s a beautiful feeling. I love painting so much and I just want to keep making more. Check out my Celebration post if you like: Huge News! It’s a Celebration!.
I’ve been making a lot of Abstract pieces lately. I’ve been inspired by nature and Autumn. I’m going with the flow of my emotions and feelings.
Autumn
Wasps all around me and I move swiftly.
Walking along the Toronto streets,
September,
The kids are back in school and the city is busy and buzzing with noise and laughter.
Golden hues on the leaves,
Burnt orange and red.
Less sun and cool evenings.
Stores are decorated and filled with autumnal decorations.
Pumpkins and fresh apples, squash and turnips.
Spices on sale! Cardamom! Cinnamon and Star anise!
Chai latte? Yes please!
September is the month of change,
The top of the trees start to lose their green colour but the sun is still warm.
Birds and squirrels are out gathering and hiding nuts to prepare for the winter.

Thank you Cat Forsley for helping me with the store name. I had a lovely outing last week with Cat. Nothing is better then getting together with a friend and having coffee. Especially a friend that is so kindhearted and inspiring. Â I’m grateful for our friendship. Here is a fun video I made on my IG Stories. The video makes me smile so much. This is exactly how I feel. Super happy!
