Messy AF. And I’m all right with that. Life. Parenting. Art-ing. That was the theme for the day...letting go of perfectionism, going with the flow, and not being an art snob (this coming from a recovering perfectionist/professional designer). It’s hard enough to simply ‘do’ and ‘be’ in this world without others judging you, let alone, judging yourself. So, here’s to expressing ourselves fully, even the messy, imperfect parts.

• One warm-up

• One design

• One Mommy + Me

• One Indigo Dreams

• One Sublime

I did a live-stream (a test-run, really) on YouTube today...A Super Duper Casual Watercolor Painting Sesh for mamas (Ha! That’s the actual title, because #keywordstrategy ).

I really just wanted this to be an easy, fun, quick run-through to test an app called Streamlabs OBS (it actually ended being 2hrs of art instruction).

I had a lot of fun, and I definitely took lots of notes for next time. Lots to learn on the the tech end, but once I started melting into the painting sesh, all of my tech worries melted away.

This one’s for the mamas. If you’re craving some creative downtime, please check out the replay. And if you have any notes or feedback to share with me, I’m all ears.

Thanks so much for your support!!

With love and creative bliss,
