The Summer of Color - Brown

What to do with brown?

I use it a lot, but when I was "specifically" faced with using it in this week's challenge, it took me awhile to get with it.
Brown makes me immediately think of fall, coffee, and OF COURSE chocolate.
Drool.
I have recently tossed out all refined sugar, processed food, & dairy...
so the thought of chocolate right now is giving me withdrawal jitters! :)

So, last night (with visions of chocolate dancing around me head) I grabbed some discarded cardboard I had in my stash & just started painting. I love using old pieces of cardboard boxes or food containers...
makes recycling very beautiful!

She has nothing to do with chocolate, but I had lots of dreams floating around my head too. I am working on goals & dreams in Melody Ross'
Soul Restoration 2 class. I am loving that course - LOVING it. I have realized that I often don't even allow myself to "dream big" due to a long,
varied list of things I am afraid of.
That is NO way to live right girls!?

This week I had a great time working with brown and finding truth
about the freedom of letting go of fear.
Fear is a pretty heavy burden to carry around.
Let it go...

It is not too late to join us in The Summer of Color.
It is time for red! :)

Also, thank you for all the sweet comments & especially to new followers! I could seriously start busting out some somersaults -
I am so happy.
I love all the artsy new friends I am making!! :)

PS I had a wonderful time on our mini vacation. Spent a few days at a golf resort in Indian Wells (Palm Springs). It was HOT, but very relaxing!

Keep Creating & Dreaming!
