Fall Fearless and Fly

Check out the new button in my sidebar. It's for a new challenge called Fall Fearless and Fly. We can use any medium for our piece. We can use one, two or all the prompts given. The first prompts were:

Headline Prompt:  Inventing the Future:  Where do you want to be 5, 10, 15 years from now.  What's holding you back?  What's propelling you forward?  What do you need to do or stop doing to create your future?
Color Prompt:  Warm colors (reds, oranges, pinks, yellows)
Quote Prompt:  "The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time."  Abraham Lincoln

At 78 I hope to be around for all 15 of these years, not only JUST around, but also actively doing art and serving the Lord. Keeping busy and healthy is important for that to take place. This watercolor is surrounded by scripture from Psalm 46. (Sorry, I accidentally reversed "refuge" and "strength".)

  2. Great prompts, Faye. Certainly interesting to think about. If I"m still a live in 15 years, that is. Either way is ok with me. Happy Sunday. May it be blessed with a special joy.
