Writing releases thoughts of mind and heart
Poetry captures feeling
Journaling reminds, records
Painting lets feelings flow
Dance brings release
Music infuses
Art inspires
My heart

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. —Pablo Picasso
Looking with your heart
Through the eyes of God
Reveals hidden things
Syllable Lune
This week I chose to do a 33 Dot Art Drawing.
It was explained as an experience to discover hidden things in your art that at first glance your eyes might not see but that through prayer God might want to reveal to you.
It sounded intriguing so I decided to try it.
Instructions are: with paper and pencil shut your eyes and make 33 dots on the paper. Open eyes and connect the dots in one continuous line without lifting the pencil from the paper.
Pray and ask God to show you what He might want you to see or what He wants to reveal to you.
It might take some time to see and know exactly what that might be, because for me, at first glance, I only saw Disney animals in my dot drawing—Goofy, Pluto and Dumbo, but then after a few days of prayer and pondering I saw the Hammer, and then the Bible verse in Jeremiah 23:29 came to mind.
The end result was an amazing work of art that I feel God wanted me to create!
Monotone message
Conquering the boredom
Doodling on my hand

I joined an art challenge this month on #Instagram called #Sketchtember and today’s prompt was to sketch a hand so I decided to try sketching a 3D hand plus do some doodling on it while I was listening to a lecture on writing poetry for a poetry class I am in.
Thus, the result was this poem and art I am posting today 😊.
?–Have you ever tried #doodling or #sketching as a challenge, or as a way to overcome boredom?

Lately I have been trying to learn how to draw. I have always wanted to but never really took the time to see if I could. So, last month I decided I would.
I bought a Sketch Book and some drawing pencils, found a daily drawing prompt site on Instagram and began my journey!
It has been a delightful, rewarding time each day. I am learning so much, finding hidden talent I didn’t know I had and meeting new friends.
I usually search for “How to Draw” sites or on You Tube that have drawing tutorials.
Today was especially exciting as the Prompt was to draw “Numbers”.
I decided to create something from the Numbers 25 as today is the 25th.
The drawing you see posted above is what resulted! It just amazed me to see where creativity led me today! From the numbers 25 to a Snoopy Top Dog drawing! 😊 I just had to share my excitement!
