To Express Yourself
Notebook Doodles Unicorns
The best thing about about art—making it yourself or enjoying others’ creations—is that art allows you to express yourself. Whatever you love, whatever is important to you, whatever makes you who you are should come out in your art. By making art that matters to you, you’re starting a conversation with everyone who sees it. You’re saying, “Hey! This matters to me. What do you think about it?” – Jess Volinski, Notebook Doodles Unicorns Coloring and Activity Book

May you have a beautiful year!
To find peace among the flowers

To Take “Me Time”
Reflections Birds and Animals by Arthouse Design
First, I suggest starting with choosing your color scheme. Do you want a monochromatic look? Do you want every color of the rainbow? You’re the artist, so it’s up to you to decide. There is no right or wrong answer these
questions. Trust your instincts by picking an element or pattern that jumps out at you first, and go from there. Before you know it, your whole page will be filled with color.
