Is it pain? Anger? Love? Fear?
So many emotions can be channeled into works of art, if we CHOOSE to create with our passions–even if those emotions are sad, or painful.
Next time your spirit is down, pick up a pencil and write away. Dip a paintbrush into any color–without thinking, without planning, without “trying” to create. See what happens…
And here’s a fun tip: if you have some wine nearby and are comforting yourself with a drink or two, try instead to create with it!
Wine, unlike normal paint, darkens as it dries, so the effect is always a surprise! I love the end result–here is one of my latest:
“Last Rose” Wine Painting

Have a creative Sunday!
Thank you for your inspiration about creativity and for the tip about painting with wine.
Take care and blessings.

And thank you, Gary, for keeping me updated with all things Bacolod! I can continue to visit the country of my birth through your updates and notes. Cheers!
Wow! I had no idea you could paint with wine! Beautiful painting by the way…
Thank you! Yes, you can use wine as the initial wash, or use it together with watercolors in place of the water. Safe travels!
