#012 | 365-Creative Quiet Time: Second Beagle Puppy

#012 Second Beagle Puppy

Months ago I did an acrylic painting of this beagle pup. I loved the reference photo so much I decided to try a different style using copic markers and colored pencils. Not sure where I’m going with it. Not even sure if I like it, but we shall see.

You may also recognize this little card below. I’ve been including them in my recent YouTube tutorials. I’ve been doing this for years on little colored notecards, or bright color construction paper, or just any paper lying around the house. I hang it on my fridge so I can see it constantly.

It’s become a habit to help feed my mind with good things and overpower the “crazy” thoughts! Ha. I’d love to share this habit with you!

The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,.
— Psalms 22:1-2

Daily Creative Quiet Time

Here I go! All through 2022 I’ll be sharing my daily creative quiet time routine for stress management. I’ll shoot for 10-minutes a day (at least) creating anything I please using one or more of the materials listed down below. Some days I’ll be progressing through a pet portrait commission, or an Online Animal Art Masterclass tutorial, or a Youtube tutorial, or a random idea I need to get down on paper.

The other huge and vital part of my creative process involves me spending time in the presence of God and meditating on His word. Most day’s I’ll be pulling straight from the YouVersion bible app, or from one of Rick Warren’s bible teachings, or another daily devotional.

My greatest desire, dear brother or sister, is that I can bring bright color to your eyes during such dark days AND inspire you to develop your own creative quiet time routine. Even for just 10-minutes a day!
