Paint With Me Thursday: Nature

Simply Feather


Okay, at the risk of sounding like a total nerd, I am totally in love with Simply Feather's Paint With Me Thursdays. It's like the icing on super delicious cupcake because let's face it, Thursday is the best day of the week. 

for realsies. 

I know many of you disagree and say Nikki are you nuts? Friday is totally the best day of the week. I disagree. Thursday are the best. Well Thursday nights are the best. 

Stefan and Damon Salvatore
then
Sam and Dean Winchester
then 
McDreamy and McSteamy
then 
the drama that is Private Practice
then
the adorable Aussie turned "psychic" turned CBI profiler, Simon Baker aka Patrick Jane aka The Mentalist.

Yeah, my poor DVR DESPISES Thursday nights because that's the one night of the week it works like a dog..lol. 

Anywhooo..back to Paint With Me Thursdays...
I like to write, in fact I write a lot. Its an escape...most of the time. Sometimes its a pain because I'm fresh out of ideas. A while back I bought an art book that I dubbed my idea book. When I get stuck with a chapter or plot or character I doodle and draw random things, sometimes they are associated with my story, others, they are just for fun. 

But lately I have been doing more doodling, and it helps with writing. Or at least I think so. But that's neither here nor there.

So now I'll quit yapping and get to the point of this here post. :)

This week's topic or subject, whatever you will call it is cool with me, was nature. I have a vase of sunflowers on my mantle that were the inspiration for my "drawing" this week.


So that's how nature inspired me this week. Maybe I'll sit outside and let nature inspire me some more!

  1. Okay, who are the first four names? McDreamy and McSteamy don't do anything for me. I don't watch Private Practice. But, Simon Baker is just delicious. I want to run my fingers through his wavy hair. (Sorry, too much information)
    Good luck with the screenplay idea. Doodling/drawing helps, but for me, all my best ideas seem to come while I'm driving. Maybe you need to go for a drive?
