Finding Peace Through Angel Art: A Watercolor Journey

Posted on by
Reply

As many of you know, I love painting angels. It’s where I find peace and solace through the artistic process. I started this watercolor painting in my art journal a while ago, but I wasn’t thrilled with the overpowering, bold colors.

Eventually, I decided to move forward and finish her. Surprisingly, once I changed my mindset, the colors started to grow on me, and new ideas emerged on how to complete this painting. Sometimes, we need to take a step back and let things settle before new inspiration comes to us. It’s a reminder that patience and a fresh perspective can transform our work in unexpected ways.

I hope this inspires you in some way today. Thanks for stopping by!!⠀

I love nature’s beauty in flowers. There are so many varieties, textures and lovely colors. It’s no wonder I have a strong calling to paint them.

I’ve been enjoying creating abstract watercolors. My intention with these paintings is to evoke the essence of flowers without focusing on the details, leaving much to the viewer’s imagination.

These small pieces are part of a larger mixed media project I’m working on, and I hope to complete them this coming week. So join me on this artistic journey to see how it evolves!

I hope this inspires you in some way. Have a great weekend!⠀

Unleashing Creativity: Transforming Brushstrokes into Abstract Art

I’ve been practicing brushstrokes in my journal with the new watercolor brushes I recently bought, and I’m amazed at how each one is completely unique. They differ in how much water they hold, their bounce, and how well they maintain their shape. These new brushes are a significant upgrade from my old ones, but they definitely take some getting used to.

Instead of leaving this as a boring practice page I thought it would be more fun to keep the creativity going and turn this into an abstract design. So I used my pens to add lines and dots.

What started as simple brushstroke practice turned into a fun and creative abstract design. Art is all about exploration and finding joy in the unexpected. Have you had similar experiences with your own practice or art projects? I’d love to hear your stories and see your creations. Share your journey in the comments below, and let’s inspire each other.

Thanks for joining me on this creative adventure!

One of the many things I love about watercolors is the element of surprise. I use a lot of water in most of my paintings, allowing the colors to move and mingle freely. The results can be stunning or sometimes a complete disaster—you never know! This time, I experimented with a new color combination and absolutely love how it turned out.

Creating art is meant to expand your mind and soul. It’s an unpredictable adventure, and that’s where the joy comes from. May this piece inspire you to explore, experiment, and find beauty in the unexpected twists and turns of your own creative journey.

Have you ever been so engrossed in creating something that you didn’t realize you were making a hot mess? Well, that’s exactly what happened with this painting! I was having a blast playing with my watercolors and experimenting with different techniques, totally oblivious to the chaos unfolding 😂 I kept adding more layers, hoping to salvage it, but eventually, called it a day.

Although it didn’t go as planned, there are still aspects I love, like the vibrant colors, the blue fanned brushstrokes around the edges, and the dreamy vibe. Overall, I think it still looks pretty cool; you can see where some of the bottom layers peek through in different areas, adding more depth. What do you think?

I hope it inspires you to embrace the unexpected in your own creative journey. Thanks for stopping by!

Sea Girl Portrait Art Journaling

I can’t believe how long it took me to complete this art journal portrait! I began with the sketch in December, and after several layers of watercolors, she’s finally finished. 👏👏 The sketch itself was time-consuming, as I wanted to get it just right. Then, I meticulously added layer upon layer of watercolors, with a few enhancements using colored pencils—though not too much. It was truly a labor of love, and I poured so much time and effort into each detail. This video shows how it all came together 😊

I hope this inspires you in some way. Have a great weekend! ⠀

This artwork is for the Scrappy8Challenge on Instagram, and this month’s theme is “Don’t label me!” Coming up with this design was quite the journey! I played around with watercolors, pen, stencils, some cool stamps, collage and a bit of glitter. For this theme I added a few empowering phrases that speak volumes:

“STOP comparing”
“labels are limiting”
be YOU-nique!”

I created this design in my 4.5×5″ handmade watercolor journal that was gifted to me by my sister from ArtsiRosi Etsy Shop. I’ve been using this journal for the challenge and it has quickly become one of my favorite journals!

I hope this piece sparks your creativity and inspires you to break out your art supplies for some weekend fun! Wishing you a safe and Happy Memorial Day!!
