Uploaded December 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
This is the twelfth installment of this series in which I use a sentiment to inspire me as I create in my art journal. You can find the full playlist for the series here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqeJA0eXm_OkRDrutn9TPO8XWSFGlluTT
Initially, this was intended as a series for 2025, but I believe I'll keep it rolling into 2026.
