Exploring Creative Freedom in Art Journaling

Featured

Art journaling is such a fun way to play and get in some practice at the same time. It’s the perfect space to try out new ideas, techniques, tools, and colors without any pressure—just pure creativity.

When I make these abstract pieces, I love how the shapes and colors take on a life of their own. Simply using more or less water can create the coolest organic effects. Whether I’m brushing wet paint onto dry paper or working wet-on-wet, the results are always different, and honestly, always a little surprising!

This piece was created in my Strathmore Watercolor Journal using only three shades of blue. I added some line work and fun details with Posca pens and gold metallic markers. It turned into an interesting little design that really invites you to stop and look a bit closer.

Whatever your passion is, keep practicing and nurturing it. Doing what you love brings so much joy—and it’s amazing to see how your skills grow along the way.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

New Art Releases: Moments of Renewal and Echoes of Joy

These past two weeks have been a whirlwind, but I survived! 🎉

Long story short—my computer crashed, and I was nearly in tears thinking I’d lost all of my work and photos. 😢 Thankfully, everything was recovered, and I now have a brand-new computer—yay! The downside? It came with all-new software, including a different version of Windows and my photo-editing program, so there’s definitely a learning curve. But I’ll get there😅

While my computer was down, I still managed to get some work done from my phone (which was not easy on that tiny screen!). I did, however, manage to list two new pieces in my Etsy shop:

🎨 Moments of Renewal – A 5×5-inch abstract painting that glows with depth and movement. Layers of luminous color and expressive brushwork create a radiant composition that feels alive—evoking both serenity and inspiration.

🎨 Echoes of Joy – A vibrant 4×12-inch modern abstract that bursts with rhythm and harmony. Energetic strokes and shifting layers of color capture a sense of celebration and motion, like joyful echoes reverberating through light and space.

✨ Both of these one-of-a-kind abstracts make a bold statement as wall art or as a shelf accent in your home, office, or creative space. Their vivid hues and dynamic energy invite reflection, spark conversation, and add a touch of contemporary elegance wherever they’re displayed.

Stop by my Flowing Waters Art Shop on Etsy to take a closer look!

Thanks so much for stopping by—wishing you a truly wonderful rest of your week! 😊

  • Drift and Bloom – Original
  • Drift and Bloom – Giclee Print

I love to lose myself in my art while I paint. Each brushstroke I add puts a little piece of myself into the artwork — a thought, a feeling, or simply a moment of quiet joy. Over time, those moments come together to form something new and alive. That’s exactly how Drift and Bloom came to be.

This 8×8 inch original painting on wood is a celebration of color, flow, and modern elegance. Layers of turquoise blue, playful pink, soft white, warm brown, and shimmering touches of gold drift together in a soothing, uplifting dance. The natural wood panel adds depth and texture, enhancing the luminous energy that makes this piece feel like it’s gently moving.

Because this painting has such a peaceful yet vibrant spirit, I’m excited to share that Drift and Bloom is now also available as a fine art Giclée print. Each print is professionally produced on premium 310g archival paper, ensuring the colors stay true and radiant for years to come.

Whether you’re drawn to the tactile richness of the original wood painting, or prefer the versatility of a print that brings its joyful calm into any room, Drift and Bloom adds a bright, modern touch to your space.

✨ Both the 8×8 original and Giclée prints are now available in my Flowing Waters Art Shop on Etsy — perfect for collectors, color lovers, or anyone who loves art that radiates harmony and light.

And for those who enjoy my photography as well — I’m in the process of adding new 11×14 inch print sizes to all my photo listings, so you can enjoy larger, statement-worthy versions of your favorite images. Stay tuned for updates as new sizes become available!

Thank you for taking a moment to share in this burst of color and creativity with me — wishing you a bright and joyful day! 😊

Every painting I create holds a little melody of emotion, and “Notes of Grace” is one that sings with color, movement, and harmony.

Notes of Grace bursts with turquoise blue, playful pink, cheerful yellow, and deep brown, layered together in joyful balance. The lively shapes and candy-colored palette make it feel almost musical, as if the colors themselves are composing a song of gratitude and light.

Because I loved the way this piece radiates happiness, I decided to make it available as Giclée fine art prints—so more people can experience its bright, uplifting energy in their homes.

✨ About the Prints
Each print is professionally created on premium 310g Giclée paper using archival, fade-resistant pigment inks that capture every vivid hue and subtle texture of the original artwork.

Whispers of Light ✨

As an artist, I often find myself deeply connected to the pieces I create. Each brushstroke carries its own story, and sometimes I like to sit with a painting for a while—reflecting on the process, making sure it feels complete, and letting the piece breathe before deciding what comes next.

Whispers of Light, my newest 18×24 abstract, is one of those pieces I took my time with. I blogged about it back in May, sharing how I paused in the middle of the night and waited for morning light to guide me. That quiet moment became part of the painting’s journey.

With its luminous layers of turquoise, rose, golden peach, and warm earth tones, this piece carries a sense of calm and gentle radiance—like a breath between thoughts. I’ve truly enjoyed pouring my heart into it, and now it’s ready to step beyond the studio.

It’s always a little bittersweet to move a painting from my studio into my shop—like closing a quiet chapter—but it also brings me so much joy to imagine it finding a new home. I love the thought of its soft glow becoming part of someone else’s story.

✨ Whispers of Light is now available in my Etsy Shop: Flowing Waters Art Shop

If this piece speaks to you, I’d be delighted for you to take a closer look. Thank you for being part of my creative journey and for supporting handmade art.

Wishing you a day filled with light and inspiration!

Watercolor Abstracts: A Creative Journey

  • Work in Progress
  • Glitter
  • Gold

I hope everyone has a fun holiday weekend ahead! I know I’m ready to slow down a little and soak in some much-needed relaxation. Lately, I’ve been doing a bit of rethinking, and one thing has become clear—I need to spend more time in the studio. To ease myself in, I decided to play around with some new watercolor abstracts.

The first piece (photo one) is still a work in progress. I love the way the vivid colors flow and mingle together, though I made the center line a bit wider than I intended I still like it overall. That’s the fun of experimenting—it all becomes part of the process.

For the second piece, I decided to add a touch of glitter along the middle line. It’s subtle in the photo, but in person it gives the painting just the right amount of sparkle and magic.

On the third, I couldn’t resist trying shimmering gold. It paired beautifully with the warmer tones and instantly gave the piece a glowing, almost autumn-like feel. With cooler days right around the corner, I’m looking forward to exploring more warm, cozy color palettes that capture the spirit of fall.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing this creative moment with me—I hope the changing season brings you inspiration too. As we welcome September, I’d love to know: what colors or little rituals help you embrace the fall season?

Wishing you a relaxing and joyful Labor Day weekend!
