LIFE. Note to self...

I created this new digital art this morning while pondering the ups and downs in life. 
It would be a perfect world if every day allowed for us to be 100% positive but some days are just not as good as others and while so many people have the ability or desire to only focus on the positive it is hard sometimes to do that. To me this is just honest and real..
I try to give myself firm affirmations and it helps me to continue to be positive even when it is hard. 
And so..here is my digital art ..note to self and to anyone else it may serve well today. There are several versions of color range because I just couldn't decide which one I most liked.
Hope this touches someone today and hope it helps me make it through the week too. 
All original, made in Photoshop with only blank canvas, textures, brushes, fonts and shapes.

 I numbered these as a means of telling you which ones I think I like best but also to get your opinions. I am curious to see what color scheme most catches your eye! Please leave a comment if you would be so kind and let me know the ones you most like! Thanks!

My favorites: 1,3,6,9

  1. I agree with you, Debbie. Putting on a false positivity isn't real, isn't honest, and most of the time isn't fooling anyone.

    Sometimes things just suck and that's ok. The trick is, I think, choosing how you respond to the sucky things that come your way. And look at you! You've chosen to be truthful, but you've also channeled that into something artistic and beautiful. All very real, and true.

    I love them all - they each evoke a different mood or season. At the moment, the one that strikes me is #6.

    Hope you find some brightness in your day, today.
