Dancing Entrepreneurs

One of the things I love about our art community is the invitation for us each to claim our own "piece of Red Thread." In circles and trainings, each SiStar is encouraged to discover and claim her gifts, and empowered to share them with others. During this time of social distancing - ehm - Artist In Residence - many are offering prompts and mini classes.

This week, my IC SiStar Ally Markotich invited us to paint a series of Prayer Squares "A Three step spiritual practice to engage your innate creativity as your prayer."  Ally posts prompts Monday, Wednesday and Friday Details are available on her site. Materials are simple, paper and colored pencils, markers, watercolor, etc.

This weekend, students in Color of Woman teacher training and Intentional Creativity® Guild members met online to paint Vision Plan Book for these changing times. Shiloh writes that she does one of these graphic plans as preparation for each of her offerings. These folded booklets are done on watercolor paper, and are one of the Red Thread projects during the CoW Teacher Training.

In this month's Mothercolour Guild Call, we painted simple color wheels...I'm always intrigued that some of my favorite colors are easy to mix. It's fun to do a wheel using different colors for the primary positions, and the Mothercolour can be mixed combining all three basic colours used.
Hansa yellow, Quinacridone Magenta, Curelean Blue

Shimmer watercolor
