I think if I strive for anything at all this year, it will be balance and harmony. I shall try my best to make sure that nothing negative influences or impacts on our homelife, whether business or personal. It’s far too easy for ‘people’ to think they know you or your business or your family based a few comments and then they have the cheek to judge, belittle and condemn. Where are the boundaries? If it means I have to be a bit less open and friendly, then so be it… After all, by confiding too much in people, you leave yourself wide open to criticism and abuse. Enough!
Lots of striped washes with my watercolour palette. They dry really chalky till you start putting other media on them! However, for more discreet journalling, they take pencil very well…
