It has been a long time since I posted anything here but as they say “there is no time like the present”. Today I was inspired to make art by two different people. One was an unsuspecting colleague who had unknowly drawn some scribbles on a page on his desk. I was in his office for work but was immeidately drawn to his “doodling”. It was hard to stop myself from leaning in for a closer look at what he had drawn. The funny part was that when I mentioned it to him later via email he had no idea that he had made these doodles. I have to say…as I said to him, if he wasn’t intending to make anything he had some pretty skillful scribbles and should seriously think about making some art. The other was also a colleague who, again, I was visiting for work purposes and who was dabbing some orange essential oil on her hands. I have a raw fruit allergy and can’t eat oranges but the smell reminded me of the “just peeled orange”. We chatted about this for a moment and then I moved on with my day. Anyway, long story short, both experiences inspired me to make some art and post it here. I have almost always ended my blog posts with “keep making art” and who knows…perhaps you too will be inspired to make art by something as simple as doodles and oranges.

It’s fantastic! I love how we can be inspired by so many things!
Thank you!! It’s always the smallest little things that do it for me too!
