*sips lemon iced tea and closes reddit tab*

hehe.

(now you have my full attention)

Hey guys!

I'm feeling pretty good today. I think it's because I did a grocery run last night and I bought more paint and more canvas!! Yay!

I'm on a roll with painting. I've been so emotional lately, I've been taking advantage of it...

I also have a theory.

I feel like it's been taking me so long to get over this sickness BECAUSE I've been so exhausted from painting. I'm not gonna stop though.

Let's just say I'm building my immune system...?

Haha, what I'm trying to say is that painting, for me, not only makes me feel so much more emotional, but it really takes a toll on me mentally. It's the very reason why I didn't paint that much in the past- it scared me, how much it revealed about me. My mind wasn't in a place to handle it then, but now I feel like I can. Or at least..... I can say, I'm trying.

I'm going to sound crazy, but I've cried. I've been crying a lot. And painting. A lot. I normally over think all the time in my head about my experiences and people- but when I'm painting, it feels more real. As much as it makes me feel vulnerable and weak seeing my mind on a physical canvas- as scary as it feels, it's relieving. It makes me feel free. I hope I can keep doing this.

*takes another sip of lemon iced tea*

If any of you guys are wondering why I'm drinking lemon tea and NOT coffee- I was hoping it would get me in the mood for this post.

Here is yet another "cute finds" post related to a unique holiday:

Happy "National Lemon Cupcake Day!!!!!!

*inserts a lemon cupcake doodle I quickly drew tonight*

Like I mentioned in a previous post, I'm trying to practice digital art. I have a drawing tablet and I'm trying to get in the habit of putting it to use.. hehe. I'll add this doodle to a section with the rest, you can view it by clicking on my "art/doodles" button on the right side of my blog.

Anywho!

As you know, to help get me in the mood to continue blogging, and to help fuel my admiration of odd holidays, here is another blog post where I relate this hobby to another:

Browsing online shops/sites and the cute items/ideas they offer<3

I love sharing them not only because of the fun of finding them, but because I feel that sharing these shops help
support small businesses and creative minds.

( I will try to keep 80% of the items I share to be from small businesses)

Let me know in the comments what items from the list below are your favorites. There will be a link under each photo to the shop/artist. If you end up purchasing an item, I'd love to know that as well. Enjoy! :) I had a lot of fun making this.~<3
