During the month of April, I joined the #artfulmemorieschallenge on Instagram after my friend Marilyn (and longtime Blogging pal as well) asked a few of us that used to post to Sepia Saturday if we'd like to play along and #sepiasaturdayalumni was created. We were given a daily prompt in April from either Jane Chipp or Jack Ravi authors of Artful Memories - How to create unique art with old photographs. I have to admit it was more than engaging, and I'm still enjoying being artsy.
I'm posting to City Daily Photo.
Creativity is Everything.
Unleash yourself.
In truth art in some form is all around us. Just open your eyes and see!
For Day 22 our prompt was, "Martin the blacksmith was born in 1929. They called him the master of fire." I created my image and added, "Even though he was a blacksmith by trade his heart belonged to being a firefighter."
"Conform, go crazy, or become an artist."

"Just because you are soft doesn't mean you are not a force. Honey and wildfire are both the color gold."
Victoria Erickson
If you ask me why I desire to
be (my own kind) of artist
it's so I may be free
to live out loud.
Take the risk or lose the chance.
For Day 19 our prompt was, "Pranjal loved waking at dawn and filling the farm with melodious chanting and warm prayers." I created my photo and added, May the beauty of nature fill your heart with peace and joy throughout the year.
Sometimes,
_Alone all by myself, my imagination becomes my universe
and all that I feel flows throughout my thoughts
and that is my reward." K. Sather
You sculpt your future with your thoughts.
"Not all things that fall down break. Some develop wings.
N. S. Chandra
Embrace You.
The practice of art isn't just about making a living
it's to expand your soul.
Also, one of my Instagram posts.
"Leave people brighter, softer, freer, and lighter than when you found them."
Thank you for your visit and your comments.
Take good care of you and
if you so desire spread some art about your day.

Thank you (lots) for sharing your beautiful artsy self. I am an appreciator rather than a creator - and a very busy appreciator.
Thank you dear friend
Hello,
Love your artsy images and the quotes. May the beauty of nature fill your heart with peace and joy throughout the year. Take care, enjoy your day!
Oh I know me too actually but I dabble in all that I can. Especially after some crazy, draining days at work! Oh my oh my!
Thanks for being here we are a great blogging bunch 😉
Thanks for stopping in Eileen and I’m gathering my photos for this upcoming Saturday’s Critters! It’s my weekend off! Yes!
It is so good to get involved in a project like that. I like your pieces very much, Karen.
Being an artist sounds better than conforming or going crazy!
