The holidays always seem to creep up faster than I’d like and then, of course, in a moment they are gone and I’m left wondering where the time went.
One relaxing way to truly slow down and enjoy the holidays is to do something creative and mindful. Plant yourself in a comfy chair, pick up your colored pencils and whatever other art supplies you have on hand, and do some coloring or painting.
I’ve been trying to do a bit of art each day to chase away the Michigan winter blahs, give myself time to breathe, and allow my mind to focus on something other than the stresses that holidays always seem to bring. Just slow down.
I recently added three new illustrations to my Etsy shop and they are looking for good homes. All they need is some color and a little time. All three are downloadable PDFs and include complimentary grey-line versions of the designs, and the swan illustration includes a bonus image. And guess what? All PDFs in my Etsy shop are on sale through the end of December so it’s a great time to add to your RubyCharmColors collection!
Works in progress with a mix of pearlescent paint, colored pencils and gel pens.
