Day 2 +/ 30 Paintings in 30 days

Preparing continues here. My kids didn't go back to school till just here on the 5th. The east coast, like most of you too around the US, has been hit with chilling cold so we have had delays too. It gets me off to a slower start yet. But I am IN THE RACE!
I work in layers of papers,text pages MY AL TIME FAVE, paint,drawing,stamping,textures...on a panel. This time I have just gone ahead and covered 4" x 4"  panels in book pages. I have about 6 here to get me started and caught up by the weekend. I hope...I'll see how I like this base and go from there.I use Liquitex Matte Medium layer and seal the torn pages. I have two books here I  am tearing from. Each with different style and size type for variety.

Using quotes and versed with my colorful mixed media techniques I will be sharing UPLIFTING and & INSPIRING QUOTES with you this month.

It is sure to get you feeling good about the NEW YEAR with some of my favorite POWER WORDS & VERSES.

From research by Barbara Fredrickson, the Huffington Post wrote "The benefits of positive emotions don't stop after a few minutes of good feelings subside. In fact, the biggest benefit that positive emotions provide is an enhanced ability to build skills and develop resources for use later in life."

I hope you find these enjoyable and PLEASE , let me know what words, quotes etc you find uplifting.
