Hi Guys! I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween!! I celebrated to the utmost fullest… hence, that’s why you haven’t heard from me in a week. Now that I’m finally recovered from all of the spooky revelry, I’m back in action and back on the blog track.
One of the things that inspires me most as an artist is getting out into nature. There’s just something about being amongst the trees in a forest that stirs my soul and desire to CREATE!! Now, it may be my Earth sign tendency (being a Taurus and all) but it goes much deeper than that. Deep like the old tangled gnarled roots of the trees. I love to spend any time I can in the woods (or as close as LA can get me into nature! HAHA!).
I went hiking with one of my girlfriends on Saturday in Coldwater Canyon. It was so much fun roaming the trials, catching up on life, inhaling the woodsy earthy air…
A stairway to the unknown…
After our hike, and as we sat munching on our brunch, the inspiration that I drew from our day were the colors I saw. I now have an uncontrollable urge to buy a brown paper sketch book and some sepia tone, white and brown pencils and sketch some trees and flora. Sometimes you just HAVE to go out and buy art supplies immediately! Am I right??
What inspires you the most to crate your art? Or what is your favorite hike? I’d love to hear in the comments below!
Happy trails to you…
xoxo,
Jen
