Inspiration in the New Year

Happy New Year, dear readers! Wishing you a year filled with love, peace, good health, happiness, prosperity, creativity and inspiration!

I'm not one for resolutions but I am all about making things better and trying to improve myself and the world around us on a regular basis.

Robert Henri's The Art Spirit is an all time favorite. I decided to revisit and work my way through it, page by page, starting today. Here's today's gem:

I am thinking of posting these daily creative gems on my Instagram feed. After all, inspiration should be encouraged and shared.

Today also begins my countdown to France! Six months and ten days now... (Want to join us?)

What inspirational things are you doing in the new year?
