A holiday bauble painted with alcohol ink. 👩‍🎨 This is one of the techniques I enjoy most. First, I drip ink on some plastic wrap, wrap the ornament up, and let it sit overnight. Then, the big reveal. #holidayornament #holidayvibes #alcoholinkpainting

Do you ever feel like running away? Getting away from it all?💜 As Twyla Thorpe suggests, art can be a comfort - something that helps you run away without leaving home. Let yourself get lost in the moment by creating - whether it’s painting, writing, dancing –whatever makes your heart sing.🎶
