Day #14 Lorax Wisdom
Just a quick one today – something to take with you through your day, wherever you may be. Go well dear friends, XDH
Day #13 I believe…
Here’s a quote I read recently from writer Elizabeth Gilbert. It really resonated with me because I truly do believe we all have the power to choose how we think and react to others and the people in our communities. When it comes to nature V nurture, on this one I’m definitely siding with nurture… [...]
Day#12 Artist Crush
I don’t know if it’s entirely valid that I even date these posts now! I seem to be crawling to the finish line of my 30 day challenge. I think it’s safe to say I’ve blown it though, but I’m not too concerned about that! I have just had two weeks of school holidays, and [...]
Day #11 Bliss Imbibe Restore
Bliss… Do you know what this is??? It’s a Puff Puff and is a sweet treat from Nigeria. absolute heaven… I was introduced to these a couple weeks ago by my new dear friend Ms B who is from Nigeria. I truly must say it’s one of my top five favourite sweets. And why? This [...]
Day #10 well, sort of…
Hmm… Yes, I know what you’re thinking “what happened to thirty days of blogging in a row?” Well that’s OK because I’m asking myself the same question! What has happened? All my good intentions have flown out the window and took a sabbatical I’m afraid. Good news they’re arriving back to their coops as I [...]
Day #9 Struggling…
Well today was actually meant to be day #12 but obviously, a few things have gotten in the way of that happening! But never mind – this isn’t meant to be a condemning practise, but a renewal and re-falling in love with my blog. I suppose, like all good solid relationships we go through ups [...]
Day #8 1000m2

The theme was 1000m2. Artists were prompted to seek inspiration from within 1000m of their studio doors. The opening night was last [...]
Day #7 On Gratitude…
On my bedside table at the moment are a couple of great books. both awesome, both challenging and both full of aha’s and tears. One is Vula Bevalile – Letters from a Young Doctor by Maithri Goonetilleke and the other, Daring Greatly by Brene Brown. Maithri’s book is a collection of letters written whilst [...]
Day #6 The best kind of mail
I have a confession to make. My name is Donna and I’m an art-bookoholic. I have to really work hard at disciplining myself not to buy gorgeous art books, but every now and then I can’t help myself! Today, my latest splurge arrived – but it’s all for the business right! These two are [...]
Day#5 Heart Vision
Just a short one from me today. This photo was snapped last week down at the beach. My little man turned 6 and I gave him this kite. We had such fun sitting there in quiet watching it flap and flow in the wind. It was a lovely grounding experience and I was mesmerized by [...]
