My first painting of 2021! I set a goal back in January to learn how to paint this year. I have always enjoyed the arts in general, but I have never once taken an official art class (only dance, theatre and one Paint Night). I found a very simple online instructional video for this seascape and went for it. I love how it turned out! I used to be a perfectionist... I struggled to complete most projects. I purposefully let go of this painting needing to be perfect (clearly it's not), but I am really proud of my beginner's progress and I had so much fun creating it. What goal(s) did you set for this year? How is your progress going? Do not feel bad if you haven't started yet! It took me over 7 months to finally get started (it's been a rough year)! We still have 5 months left of 2021, so there's no better time to get started than NOW! This week... Go for it! 🎉🎉🎉

"From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us." -Acts 17:26-27 👨🌎🕓🙌

Every relationship has those topics that no one dares to touch. They're the "don't go there" conversations. It's just easier to sweep it aside for another day. We not only do this with things we are ashamed of, but also good things too. Our heart and hopes become hidden for fear of... you name it! It's time to say the unsaid! Read my latest post to find out how we can take easy steps to restore our most meaningful relationships with family and friends! https://theovercomers.blog/2021/07/16/saying-the-unsaid/
