We may not be up for much travel these days, but Mama and I are about to embark on an adventure of creativity!
This is the Nosy Parker Family Daily Art Challenge for September 2019. Sketch. Paint. Create. Whatever your artistic inclination of the day, just create. Even if there’s only time for a one-minute sketch. Take that moment. Spark joy!
Today’s #OneGoodThing was getting ready for a creative month with Mama! For anyone who wants to join in, please consider sharing your artwork in the comments or send us an email. You could end up featured on the blog! What was your #OneGoodThing today? Please share in the comments! Kindness is Everything.
