Sometimes you just have to go outside and paint! Sat Chat 6/8/24

Hi friends! Yesterday after filming Sat Chat I went to the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens to paint with friends! It was a lovely day. The forecast had been calling for rain all week but luckily it cleared up just in time to get an afternoon of painting in. I packed light and got 2 watercolors and a pen and ink sketch (to paint later) done.

But the best part was time spent with friends! I have been thinking a lot about the stuff I say “Yes!” to since my year of YES last year and I think socializing is something I never regret doing. Photo left to right: Karen, Lindsay, Angela and Shana at the botanical gardens.

Our world can be increasingly lonely these days so if you can spend time with people you enjoy just do it! Make the time. You won’t regret it. And now, here’s Sat chat!

Other stuff I mentioned:

• There are still free tickets for Plein Air Days at the Botanical Gardens if you are local and wish to attend. Today is sold out but Sunday and Monday have availability.

• Free Michaels class next Friday, sign up here

• My papercraft collection with Craft Stash *Free shipping on orders over $40 in the USA

I hope you have a fun, creative, relaxing, or productive weekend! Set your intentions for how you want it to go and do your best. Happy crafting!
