Get Messy Creative Team Blog Hop | Season of Color

The newest season of the Get Messy Art Journal program is just about to start, and I’m excited to be joining my fellow Creative Team members on a little blog hop.  You can follow links at the end of each of our posts to a different team member, and get a sense of just how lucky I am to work with such talented, inspired and wonderful artists.

This being the Season of Color (…or Colour if you’re fancy and/or not American), we’ve each been assigned a color for our hop.  Orange is not a color I work with often (you know me: grey and blue and a little more grey… and very few warm colors), but according to a potentially un-trustworthy Internet source

Orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation.

I can get on board with these orange things (whether they’re true or not).

My creative process lately has been very paired down.  I’ve struggled to carve out large windows of time to paint, or do anything especially involved.  But I often find myself filling ten or twenty minute stretches with these simple pieces– hand cut letters and messages of encouragement.  

Because these are complicated times.  And because I believe we could all use a bit more positivity and kindness and support.

And hey, maybe a bit more enthusiasm, fascination, creativity, determination…. you know, those orange things.  And now, I’m thrilled to send you across the globe to Sasha and her beautiful artwork for the next stop of this Get Messy Creative Team blog hop.

What colors do you gravitate toward most often?

    I’ve only recently started cutting out my own letters but find it very therapeutic…yours are lovely just as they are!

    I feel if I cut out letters they wont be as cool as that, but maybe I will give it a try. Orange for the win!
