Jamie Ridler's Studios and AEDM DAY 10 at Leah's Art Every Day of the Month. I have been using Jamie's wishcast prompts as inspiration for poetry writing as I am a newbie and can use all the inspiration I can get. Today's wishprompt was "How do you wish to grow older? Turning this around a bit a wrote a poem to my older self, here it goes:
A note to myself as I grow older,
Did you stand in your truth as you grew bolder?
Did you share your story through image and word?
Did you keep speaking until you were heard?
Did you find healing in living the creative way?
If not that's alright.. there's always TODAY!
And the AEDM is another shape picture I drew, I have been drawing these to test different mediums. Today I used watercolor pencils. After shading in all the areas I then applied water to half and left half dry.
Have a great day and may you find time for wishing and creating.
Namaste,
Karen

I loved the fact that you treated yourself gently even if you hadn´t achieved what you had planned and gave yourself another chance
As Karen wishes for herself, so I wish for her also. I too used those pencils. Great way water brings out more colour.
