#CreatorsForPeace

More than art, today I want to talk about the children in Ukraine. War is always horrible, but when it ends up hurting children directly, is even worse.

This blog is not about politics at all, but I like helping.

I am participating in this #CreatorsForPeace  event, to help, donate and spread information about helping children via UNICEF. 

If you can, please donate:

https://creatorsforpeace.com

As you know if you have been in my blog before, I love painting children.  The main reason being that we all need more innocence in our life, and so, anytime I can help a child, I consider it my duty. 

Our duty, as human beings.

I will continue to paint children, to keep trying to find the sweetness of innocence and the joy of our inner child. Thanks for visiting. May you have a beautiful day. ♥

Gelatin printing AND Art Foamies!

I love gelatin printing and I love stamps! Today's project is a lot of fun and super relaxing!

Grab your deli paper HERE

Print or add layers to old printed paper. Watch me printing in this video HERE

Then select a shape, any shape you like or something that matches the celebration of the month (Easter bunny, Christmas tree, Hearts, flowers etc)

Grab your Art Foamies,  In this case I am using an alphabet from Balzer Designs and I love it!

Once you select what mono-printed paper you want, make your "mask out of a sturdy paper. I used a folder paper from the dollar store!

Pick a color, roll it on your gel plate, make marks as extra texture then place your paper with your mask on it to create a "negative space" print and...

Add your Art Foamies Stamps!

I wanted the word Sparkle, but you can personalize with any favorite word!

If you are not into gelatin printing (yet!) then simply paint  your shape and have fun with the Art Foamies stamping!

Watch the video HERE and let me know what you think!

Self portrait in Acrylic - Painting faces Modigliani style

This past February, painting for the 29 faces was an extra challenge. In my personal life I had 3 family members passing away. Not due to covd but the pandemic made things worse.

We drove to TX with the hope to see people -properly social distancing and all -  but we ended stranded in a hotel, the roads closed due to ice, bunch of unexpected snow and all kinds of chaos. 

We were ok even if we had very limited food, but many friends and family ended up with no electricity, no water and many other problems.

At the end we didn't see anyone, we had to just turn back and drive west.

My feelings and thoughts have been up and down and all I can say is...

It is totally true that art heals when needed. It helps your mental health. Sometimes it helps more, sometimes less, sometimes it takes a while to kick in, the healing while making art, but sending our hands and heart to work on creating, keeps the mind from going in that other circle that might take a while to heal. 

Plus, art helps You and also brings a smile to Another far away person that sees it.

I know for myself, looking at all the faces people created this month, felt very good.

This is what I managed to create. Click HERE to watch this video

Much love to you ♥
