Today I followed a free class with pastels. I never used it before. I was some 2 hours busy if no more. I was so proud of the outcome. Took pictures (Thank God🙏) to send to my children. I wanted to put in my journal. I thought pastel will erase, so I took spray that you use to protect paintings. The worse thing happened, everything went black. I share here the pictures. I said to myself: " Never happened to me something like this before, after I finished a project, but that's life, I won't be frustrated". I drew very quickly something on top of the page just to make the energy of disappointment flow. Then I printed the drawing so I can still keep it as a reminder. I really felt like: " When things go wrong just continue to flow". At least I made the experience. I can always come back and draw with pastels something intuitive. But to tell the truth, if it erases so quickly it's not my cup of tea.🤣 By the way, if someone knows what you put on top to protect I'll be happy to learn.❤️

Hello all, my name is Jeanette, but everyone calls me JB, i currently enjoy creating earth art using things from the earth. But I'm a Gemini with several outlets and picking one is just to complicated for me. Thinking is could be my block, not focusing in on one thing. I'm excited to connect with everyone.

I usually start my day giving thanks for waking, open the windows and say hello to my plants. Today I was inspired to write a poem. If interested please click the attached link. https://l1nq.com/p84ynop

Today, I am choosing to share: to be honest, it has taken me a long time to share or take credit for the things I have done. A childhood trauma, we can call it that if you want, discouraged by my parents at an early age, asking for anything or showing up for myself seemed impossible. The first time I shared a piece of written work, it took all I had to push the execute button. I held my breath, closed my eyes, and wondered if anyone would read it. It was a shared perspective on being a sister. The one person to discredit my point of view was my sister, and that hurt the most. The answer to the question, why do I share? I am looking for appreciation, confidence, and the ability to continue creating.

My ability to say "no", and to set boundaries without insult and feeling the lift of another burden that's not mine to carry.
