OMG OMG OMG!!!!! I’m so glad I came across this video. I’ve been sick for a year with chemo therapy and cancer surgery and I need something to get me back into painting. Chemo makes you feel that everything is impossible but this shows me I can do just anything and have fun!!!!! 🎉

It's called neurographica it's actually an art therapy style. What it is is the lines are supposed to be completely random or you're supposed to scribble something on the paper very quickly and then you round all the sharp edges making the sharp thoughts more smooth then you're supposed to add field lines or grounding lines which help ground you and let you analyze deep thoughts even better. I took a beginner's course in neurographica at the neurographica academy online it's really great in fact one of the things that I wanted to do was learn to organize better and honestly after I took that course a year ago I can't stop trying to get 40 years of my life without organization actually organized. It's also help me with a lot of my PTSD and my ADHD and anytime I feel upset or stressed out I can grab a piece of paper and do the work.

Am I the only one who loves paint blooms? They are like abstract flowers to me...

My daughter has left the couch for her sketch book & watercolors. Thank you🤍

I did a few of these on my lunch break today and you're right. They do satisfy without eating into time. I even combined a few (flowers in circles) and added a further pen colour into the equation (white posco for added highlights). Cheers for the hints and tips.

In the first piece when you mess up but go with it, it reminds me of the best piece of art advice I’ve ever heard. When you mess up get excited. That switch in mindset helped me improve tremendously and I enjoy art more. Mistakes give us opportunity you never ever would have had. It’s also why I love drawing and doodling in pen you learn to incorporate your mistakes.

I actually love the bleed-through on the back side of the large flower! When you were flipping back through, I wondered when you did that one, and then realized it's the back side - lol. Thanks for all of these great ideas. :)

Oh … NOW I’m inspired!

Don’t ever be afraid. We don’t have to love everything you do, you don’t have to love everything you do. It’s the fact that you create & inspire others as well as yourself that is the best part - plus you create some awesome images & they would make great art prints!

Everyone has that “start over” feeling: whether it’s re-doing the bathroom, writing an essay for class, painting, drawing, it’s called “the muck in the middle”. Usually about the pre-to-halfway mark. It’s universal.

The “starting a new project” excitement begins to wane and we ask: what have I gotten myself into? But “you’re just as far in as you’ll ever be out” may as well continue on, bc if you start over, you’ll end up in the same place.
